Abstract
The use of information systems to improve the quality of medical care has become a popular trend among medical institutions. Electronic platforms for various procedures and resource sharing systems, such as electronic medical equipment, accumulated medical knowledge, various disease studies, information services management, and retaining and transferring health records, undergo constant development. Previous procedures followed by hospital social workers when recording suicide attempts were complicated and tedious, reducing the level of care provided to monitored cases and affecting the quality of suicide prevention and quality control indicators. Therefore, we implemented an information system for hospital suicide prevention operations and simplified the procedures to enable health care workers to effectively understand the conditions of suicidal cases. This information system not only enhances suicide prevention operations but also provides an effective information platform for the suicide prevention link actively promoted by the government.
