Current Status of Bereavement Services for Survivor of Suicide in Taiwan Medical Institutions

摘要


Individuals facing the loss of their loved one due to suicide are referred to as survivors of suicide loss (SoS). Suicide is a tragedy that will cause long lastingeffects on the people left behind. Every suicide will affect at least six relatives and friends around them. MacKay Memorial Hospital established the first suicide prevention center in Taiwan in 2005. Since then, the Suicide Prevention Center has served 363 bereaved cases and 3,552 counseling services have been provided. In order to provide better support for cases with suicidal ideation and suicidal bereaved families, MacKay Memorial Hospital has a team that consists of a psychiatrist, a psychologist, and a social worker, mainly to accompany this group of people. This companionship has become a routine service for SoS. Everyone has the right to grieve. Grief needs to be seen, only that the grief can be slowly healed.
