Your assignment is to prepare and submit a paper on suicide among older adults/elderly. asure would be to develop an appropriate intervention program that not only screens the elderly population for depression and other suicide risk factors, but educates, informs, supports, and helps the elderly know that their thoughts are not taboo, but need to be talked about.
Although elderly suicide has not been extensively studied, Cattell and Jolley (1995) conducted a study on 100 suicide deaths in the city of Manchester on individuals over the age of 65. They found out that marriage was a protective factor for men, as the suicide rates for elderly men were higher in widowed and single men than married men. For females, there was no such protective factor (Cattell &. Jolley, 1995, p. 453). 89% of those studied were British nationality, compared to three Polish, two Chinese and two Indian nationals.
