National clinical assessment data of Indigenous Traveller women attending 24 Irish emergency departments, between 2018–2022, in a suicidal crisis: a sequential mixed method study
Results highlight the potential suicide risk of Traveller women over the age of 40 and the significant issue of social isolation when all forms of interpersonal support - family, Traveller organisations, and public health services - are lacking, but crucial for a collaborative safety plan upon ED discharge.
