All SAFE VET EDs provide a standardized intervention that is specifically adapted for use in the ED to mitigate suicide risk. Given that the SAFE VET intervention was developed for use in a busy ED setting, the length of the intervention is approximately 45 minutes. The SAFE VET intervention is administered by a clinical provider who has been specifically trained and consists of: 1. Risk Assessment 2. Safety Planning Intervention: Developed by Stanley and Brown (2008), Safety Planning Intervention consists of a hierarchically-arranged list of coping strategies identified for use during a subsequent suicidal crisis. 3. Clinical Follow-Up Protocol
