JAIL SUICIDE CONSULTATION

Lisa Boesky, PhD helps jails improve their suicide prevention programs to help save lives and decrease vulnerability to litigation.

Her evaluations/audits of suicide prevention policies, procedures and practices focus on helping jails:
  • Better identify residents at high-risk to die by suicide
  • ​Effectively respond to incarcerated individuals at increased risk of suicide
  • Decrease suicidal thoughts and behaviors among the residents in their care 
  • Reduce vulnerability to litigation 
  • Take corrective action and improve practices if already involved with litigation​
Best Practices in Suicide Prevention
Dr. Lisa Boesky's 25+ years of experience specializing in suicide prevention within corrections allows her to tailor her consulting services to the specific needs of the agency and the individuals in their custody. 

Dr. Boesky serves as an expert witness on civil cases involving incarcerated individuals who have died by suicide, has authored two books, and spoken to over ten thousand professionals on key issues related to suicide prevention and mental health. Dr. Boesky translates national standards, best practices and clinical research into day-to-day practice so jail administrators, managers, supervisors and front-line staff can implement new, and often life-saving strategies with the residents in their facility. ​
