Risk assessment with an older man after a suicide attempt

John is a 62 year old man who has been admitted to a mental health unit after taking an overdose of paracetamol in an attempt to kill himself. He is being assessed by a psychiatrist, who is exploring John's suicide attempt as well as whether or not he is depressed. Watching the film, try and pick out the clinical risk indicators that highlight John's degree of ongoing risk. You might also find it useful to think of what it is in John's experience that helps the psychiatrist determine if he is depressed. The psychiatrist uses a particular interviewing style but there are examples here of how to 'drill down' into a subject e.g. John's sleeping pattern, and ask difficult questions.
