Dear Member,

We are launching a weekly PQS Plan for you to follow and keep on track!

There is a lot of work to be done between now and February so stay with us on our plan to prevent falling behind.

WEEK 1: Suicide Prevention 

Complete this task by Monday 26^th October to stay on track

What you need to do:

1. ALL of your patient facing staff including delivery drivers and locums must complete the Zero Suicide Alliance (ZSA) training*.
2. At the end of the training staff will be able to enter their names and print out a certificate – Keep this in your PQS folder.
3. Create an action plan (See attached template).
4. Have a list of organsiations to signpost too (See attached template).
5. Keep a log of Referrals / Interventions / Follow ups (See attached template).
6. Keep a record of (this will be required for MYS later):
   1. Total number of staff who have satisfactorily completed the training.
   2. the total number of staff that have not completed the training under the above exemption.
   3. a declaration they have completed, or updated, a team action plan.

*Staff members, who have been affected by suicide and do not wish to undertake the ZSA training, are exempt from completing it.

As always, if you require any further help and support please contact the PharmaPlus team today.
