AbstractSuicide is one of the most important causes of death in prison around the world. In France, suicide rate for prisoners is 18.5 suicides per 10,000 inmates: seven times more common than in the general population. Among the risk factors identified in the literature, those most strongly associated with suicide in prison are physical isolation in custody, psychiatric history and history of suicide attempts. The prevention of suicide in prison involves several measures including treatment of psychiatric disorders, improvement of living conditions in custody, social support of prisoners and use of specific tools and programs by prison supervisors. No program for prevention of suicidal recurrence has ever been implemented. We propose to adapt « VigilanS », a program already applied in the general population, to the prison population.Copyright © 2018 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
