Area of Science:

  • Mental Health Training
  • Clinical Simulation
  • Social Work Education

Background:

  • Mental health providers are crucial for suicide prevention but often lack adequate preparedness.
  • Skill acquisition in suicide prevention is essential for effective clinical practice.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary effectiveness of suicide prevention simulations.
  • To assess the impact of virtual client simulations on student preparedness and clinical skills.

Main Methods:

  • A pilot study involving 22 social work students (MSW program).
  • Students completed pre- and post-test surveys.
  • Participants engaged in three virtual client simulations: suicide risk assessment, safety planning, and motivating clients for treatment.

Main Results:

  • Simulations were deemed acceptable and feasible by students.
  • Significant improvements were observed in clinical skills scores and perceived preparedness.
  • Students expressed a strong need for enhanced suicide prevention training.

Conclusions:

  • Virtual client simulations show promise as a scalable and effective tool for suicide prevention training in social work.
  • The findings suggest these simulations can enhance clinical skills and preparedness for mental health professionals.
