Changing the Narrative on Su***de. Start the Conversation. Today, the School of Nursing & Midwifery, UCC joins people around the world in recognising the importance of su***de prevention.

For nurses, midwives, and healthcare professionals, listening matters. So does asking the difficult question, taking someone's distress seriously, and helping them connect with appropriate support. But su***de prevention belongs to all of us. 💬 Start the conversation. 👂 Listen without judgement. 🤝 Stay connected. ❤️ Help someone find support. You don't need to have the perfect words. Sometimes, simply being willing to listen can be an important first step. Today, we also remember those who have died by su***de and acknowledge the lasting impact on those who are bereaved.
