Search her and her belongings for pills and other dangerous objects, then minimize the attention given to her by staff in order to reduce secondary gains. b. When medically stable, confront her with her pattern of maladaptive coping, noting that the low lethality of her attempts suggests she is seeking attention. c. Discuss with her family ways that they can reduce her attention-seeking suicide gestures by keeping all medications locked and not responding to histrionic behavior. d.
