Profiles of care quality indicate that tailored interventions can reduce suicidal behaviors effectively.
Quality of care was higher in patients with worse social and health conditions (Profiles 2 and 3). However, findings showed that services could be substantially improved to prevent suicidal behaviors, with outreach interventions significantly strengthened for Profiles 1 and 4. Services could protect patients better against suicidal behaviors and adverse outcomes if they more closely matched their needs and the severity of their conditions. In this sense, Profile 3 and 4 patients would benefit from more continuous follow-up care over time.
