N2  - OBJECTIVES: This study examined clinician experiences and attitudes toward safety planning in a large urban pediatric psychiatry department serving primarily Latino youth. <br><br>METHODS: Forty-six clinicians completed a survey assessing their experience with and attitudes toward safety planning with adolescents at-risk for suicide. <br><br>RESULTS: The majority of clinicians were female (78%), non-Latino White (54%), and aged 30-39 (52%). Clinicians' attitudes were largely positive (M = 3.69 SD = 0.47, Range = 2.42-4.42). However, many clinicians (n = 24) were not convinced that safety planning reduces the imminent risk of suicidal behavior in patients. <br><br>CONCLUSION: This study provides more depth to our understanding of the way in which safety planning is perceived by clinicians.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
