N2  - From reception to triage: Care of suicide attempts in hospital emergencies. This study aimed to investigate the reception, care and referrals given to users attended for suicide attempts in two urgency and two emergency services of a city in the south of Brazil. Qualitatively, sixteen health professionals of higher education from different professional categories were interviewed. The results show the predominance of the female sex, intoxication as the most frequent method and the use of the attempted suicide as a way to call attention. The existence of minimum care protocols is perceived. There is, however, a difficulty in post-discharge referrals to other health services. Thus, it highlights the need of capacitation for professionals to deal with this demand and a better articulation between the Health System and other policies to receive users after discharge as well © 2017,Estudos de Psicologia.
