Franciscan Health hosting QPR Suicide Prevention Training in Mooresville on September 16th

MOORESVILLE, Ind. – Franciscan Health is hosting a QPR (Question, Persuade and Refer) suicide prevention training in Mooresville in September.

The training is scheduled for Wednesday, Sept. 16, from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. at Hope House in Mooresville.

QPR is an entry-level suicide prevention course that teaches how to identify suicidal ideation and how to persuade someone to seek help. QPR is a widely taught gatekeeper training course. Like CPR, QPR is an emergency system that can help someone in a crisis save lives.

Those who become QPR-trained gatekeepers will gain the ability to recognize signs of suicidal thoughts, provide hope and support and guide someone to life-saving assistance.

To register, please email Kelli Webb at KWebb@ChurchesInMission.org or call (317) 220-2627.

Hope House is located at 1125 North Indiana St. in Mooresville.
