New PMHNPs get the call. A patient endorses suicidal ideation. Now what? In this Deep Dive, two hosts walk through the 2026 playbook every new psychiatric NP needs in their first 30 days — the C-SSRS questions worth memorizing, why the Stanley-Brown safety plan beats a no-suicide contract every time, and the chart language that holds up when the case ends up in front of a board. Plus: the three questions to ask before letting any patient walk out of the room, and the documentation phrases that actually protect you under audit. If you've been trained on suicide assessment in nursing school but your hands shake when it shows up in clinic for the first time, this is the episode that closes that gap.
