Abstract
|
|
|
|
This study is a systematic review of literature to analyze the characteristics and effects of suicide prevention programs for the elderly. We systematically reviewed literature published from 2007 to 2018 in 8 domestic and foreign databases (KISS, NDSL, Koreamed, RISS, Pubmed, CINAHL, EMBASE, CENTRAL). The main search terms were 'elderly', 'suicide', 'intervention program', and included 8 articles matching the selection criteria in the final analysis. The program was divided into activities, counseling, and community support programs. Most of the programs effectively reduced suicidal ideation and depression by reducing suicide risk factors and improving protective factors. As a result of the analysis, it was found that it is necessary to develop a specialized program for the prevention of suicide in the elderly considering social, environmental, personal and community characteristics.
