EAP also provides training for employees, managers and supervisors for the prevention of, and intervention in, poor job performance, absenteeism and workplace incidents that could result in accidents or injury.
Suicide Prevention
270-412-0083
Leaders at all levels have the responsibility to protect their Soldiers on and off the battlefield. This includes recognizing uncharacteristic and suicidal behaviors.
Effective suicide prevention requires everyone in the unit to be aware of the risk factors for suicide and know how to respond. If a Soldier seems suicidal, the time to take action is now. Distress can lead to the development of unhealthy behaviors. People closest to the Soldier (fellow Soldiers, family and friends) are in the best position to recognize changes due to stress or depression and to provide support.
LOOK FOR:
- Comments that suggest thoughts or plans of suicide.
- Relationship problems (loss of girlfriend or boyfriend, divorce).
- Uncharacteristic behaviors (e.g., reckless driving, excessive drinking, stealing).
- Significant change in work performance or attitude.
- Depressed mood, hopelessness.
- Withdrawal from social activities.
WHAT TO DO
In any situation, if a Soldier threatens suicide, take it seriously. You may have very limited time and only one chance to intervene.
Remember the acronym “ACE”
- Ask: Ask the question directly, “Are you thinking of killing yourself?”
- Care: Remain calm and actively listen to produce relief.
- Escort: Never leave your buddy alone. Get him or her to the chain of command, to a chaplain or to the emergency room.
