Abstract

The Research to Practice column is intended to improve the research critique skills of the advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) and the emergency nurse (RN) and to assist with the translation of research into practice. This column focuses on assessing risks of suicide in adolescents and young adults, using as a basis for the discussion a recently developed suicidality screening tool (L. M. Horowitz et al., 2012).
