Suicide prevention panel feels hampered

Team hampered in Montana suicide review

HELENA (AP) — A team reviewing every suicide in Montana this year has been hampered in its attempt to secure consistent and complete reports from county coroners, the team's chairman said.

The seven-member Suicide Review Team, appointed in 2013 by Gov. Steve Bullock, hopes to discover how more suicides can be prevented.

Dr. Leonard Lantz, a Helena-based psychiatrist who chairs the Suicide Review Team, told people gathered for the 2014 Montana Conference on Suicide in Helena about some of the problems the team has come up against in its work.

Details in Monday's Havre Daily News.
