abstract="INTRODUCTION: Suicide is a leading cause of death in the US. Many factors impact suicide and suicide prevention; however, improved awareness, recognition, and depression management account for some of the best suicide prevention strategies. <br><br>METHODS: A depression case management service, compared to usual care, was evaluated for its ongoing assessment of patients with depression and improvements in care. <br><br>RESULTS: Case management demonstrates improved documentation of PHQ9 scores, response rates, and remission rates when compared to usual care. <br><br>DISCUSSION: Additional benefits of case management are seen in improved suicide assessment and potential for intervention and access to care. © 2015 CPNP<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
