Supporting improved responses to self-harm: A reflection and improvement tool

This tool is designed to help leaders consider and support local improvement in response to self-harm, in line with the Scottish Government and COSLA Self-Harm Strategy and Action Plan.


High Level Reflective Questions for Partnerships

Please see supporting document Appendix 1 for fillable form

  • Across the partnership do professionals and communities have access to evidence-based information and training on self-harm?
  • Is there clarity across the partnership, both for professionals and communities, on where evidence based self-harm support can be provided.
  • Are communities and professionals, including those who do not provide direct support for self-harm, able to provide an informed and compassionate response to self-harm where required?
  • If you provide or commission self-harm support, is service design and approach to provision informed by the most up to date and reliable national and local data and evidence, including views from those with lived and living experience of self-harm?
