dc.description.abstractWHAT IS KNOWN ON THE SUBJECT?: Only a small number of adolescents with suicidal behaviour receives any follow-up treatment. The implementation of recurrent behaviour prevention strategies is crucial in the period following suicide attempts and should take into account adolescents' opinions to be effective and congruent. WHAT DOES THIS PAPER ADD TO EXISTING KNOWLEDGE?: This paper shows that the 33 adolescent participants in the study identified the following protective factors of recurrent suicidal behaviour: family, friends and other trusted persons, as well as the self and newly learned strategies. The adolescents described their family as a constant presence and reported wishing that their parents maintain their current family support. Psychological support, health professionals and occupational activities are what the adolescents value most about hospitalization, and some criticisms are related to the environment, activities and health professionals. The adolescents also emphasize the need to maintain contact with the nurses after hospital discharge and make suggestions for service improvement related to the environment and the interventions implemented. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE?: Knowing the protective factors of recurrent suicidal behaviours, perception of the impact of the intervention, the expectation of future support and healthcare follow-up is crucial for adapting suicide prevention strategies to be put in place by health services for better quality care delivery. The results obtained allow us to define as specific implications the implementation of psychoeducational intervention directed at the adolescent's family with suicidal behaviour during hospitalization and the definition of strategies for maintaining contact and follow-up with the adolescent after discharge. This study emphasizes the need to reinforce training in suicidology for all health professionals for the improvement of clinical practice.pt_PT
