This Suicide Prevention Strategy describes what Every Life Matters – He Tapu te Oranga o ia Tangata: Suicide Prevention Strategy 2019–2029 and Suicide Prevention Action Plan 2019–2024 for Aotearoa New Zealand
This web page provides high level suicide information for 2014 ahead of the annual Suicide Facts: Deaths and intentional self-harm hospitalisations 2014 publication.
This annual statistical publication presents suicide information received from the New Zealand Mortality Collection, and admissions to hospital for intentional self-harm sourced from the New Zealand National Minimum Dataset.
This guidance was developed for emergency department staff, who have the important role of caring for people who present to emergency departments at risk of suicide. The guidance builds on (but does not replace) the 2003 Assessment and Management of People at Risk of Suicide guidelines developed by the New Zealand Guidelines Group and the Ministry of Health.
