LAS VEGAS (KSNV) — The recent deaths of Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain have put renewed focus on suicide prevention and awareness.
Lanecha Williams and Kristine Yumul with the Well Care Group joined us Monday to discuss the warning signs of someone who might be contemplating suicide.
Las Vegas, NV - (September 5th, 2017) – The Well Care Group is proud to offer FREE depression screenings every Friday in the month of September from 1p-3p at the Las Vegas Clinic in observance of Suicide Prevention Month. Suicide is the 6th leading cause of death for Nevadans. Males make up 80% of suicide deaths at an average rate of 33.3 per 100,000. Nevada seniors over 60 have the highest suicide rate in the nation, over double the national average for the same age group (Source: Department of Health and Human Services).
On September 21, 2017 The Well Care Group teamed up with the Salvation Army and fed almost 1000 homeless and displaced individuals. The Well Care staff was on-site serving the Las Vegas residents and screening individuals to see if they were candidates for the Well Group's many programs.
In 2015, The Well Care Group piloted a program, aimed at reducing the number of readmissions among the underserved population in the Southern Nevada city. The program was so successful it was implemented at 90 percent of hospitals in Las Vegas.
"It has done so well in Las Vegas there was no reason it could not impact the population in Northern Nevada," said Max Casal, who is CFO as well as managing director of the Northern Nevada division of Well Care.
