Qualitative study of the experience of parents whose adolescent has been hospitalized for a suicidal episode: reshaping, mobilizing, and adapting
Parents faced with their adolescent's suicidal crisis are immediately affected and mobilized. The youth's hospital admission supports the family's mobilization while inducing its reshaping but does not appear entirely sufficient. It is crucial to provide interventions that enhance parents' skills in supporting their suicidal teen and to promote parental empowerment and family recovery. Specifically, approaches combining psychoeducation, family-based work and peer support with other parents hold promise in addressing parental needs in this context.
