Enhancing emergency care environments: Supporting suicidal distress and self-harm presentations through environmental safeguards and the built environment

Self-harming and suicidal distress are prevalent, worldwide healthcare issues. Existing literature explains that both self-harm and suicidal presentations at Emergency Departments are increasingly occurring, correlating to high costs in healthcare service delivery.
