Abstract

In “The Paradox of Suicide Prevention”, Turner and colleagues made an important contribution: they applied Rose’s prevention paradox to suicide prevention efforts in healthcare systems. However, in doing so, they conflated prevention and treatment and did not distinguish suicide from suicidality. Their views may confuse efforts to design and implement clinical pathways for preventing suicide.
