Summary

To address the unmet need of optimizing the treatment and management for adolescent suicidality, the investigators propose to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of telehealth services compared to inpatient and OCIC for suicidal adolescents in target population. To achieve this goal, the investigators propose a multi- site study to compare telehealth, OCIC, and inpatient care, and see which can lead to a lower risk of a suicidal event (primary outcome) as well as higher treatment satisfaction (TS) and satisfaction with life (SL) (secondary outcomes) of both the legal guardians/parents and patients.
