Guidelines for State Health Society and District Health Society
How to use these Guidelines
These guidelines are a general set of recommendations about how you can help someone who may be at risk of suicide.
Each individual is unique and it is important to tailor your support to that person’s needs. These recommendations therefore
may not be appropriate for... every person who may be at risk of suicide.
Also, the guidelines are designed to be suitable for providing first aid in India. They may not be suitable for other cultural
groups or for countries with different health systems.
