Assertive Outreach Suicide Prevention (A.O.S.P.)

The Assertive Outreach Suicide Prevention (A.O.S.P.) program is based out of Peterborough Regional Health Centre and Ross Memorial Hospital. The program connects with individuals who have had a suicide attempt, with the intent to die, to assertively engage with them and establish a safety plan and connect them to longer term services. The A.O.S.P. program has a family education support worker who works directly with the families, friends and loved ones of the individuals referred to the A.O.S.P. program.

Access to the A.O.S.P. program requires a referral from the hospital.
