Annotation"Older people and suicide" by Derek Beeston of the Centre for Ageing and Mental Health, Staffordshire University (CSIP, 2006) brings together findings from UK and international studies. Jill Manthorpe critically examines this research/literature review, and draws out the implications for nurses and general practitioners (GPs). She suggests that the evidence presented - such as on behavioural and verbal clues - may also inform social work practice, social care commissioning and integrated services. (RH).
