A nurse is providing a community health education class about suicide prevention. Which of the following should the nurse identify as risk factors for suicide? (Select all that apply.)
Correct Answer: A, B, E
Rationale: The correct answers are A, B, and E. Substance use disorder is a known risk factor for suicide as it can lead to increased impulsivity and impaired decision-making. Age greater than 45 years old is a risk factor due to factors such as isolation, health issues, and life changes. Schizophrenia is associated with a higher risk of suicide due to the symptoms of the disorder and the impact on one's mental well-being.
Choices C and D are incorrect as being female or currently married are not universal risk factors for suicide. The absence of choices F and G also indicates that they are not relevant risk factors for suicide.
