What Would The Usual Medical Procedures Be For Patient Attempting Suicide By Slitting Their Wrists?
This is really just a question out of curiosity, and the fact that I m writing a story. What would the usual medical procedures be after someone is brought in from an attempted suicide by slitting their wrists? I d also like to know about how they d be admitted to the psychiatric ward.

HI
Thank for asking to asking HCM
I really appreciate your curiosity, suicide is very thin line with very short time limit, person who decided for suicide never come before or reveals this, if caught doing this then the situation is there "thin time line" if this time period past out then person can be survive for sure, if we come to know about the suicidal tendency then he/she should be sent to concern unit for treatment, take care and have a great day.
