Topher Jerome has struggled with suicide ideation most of his life and he has experienced multiple attempts. In this interview, he talks to us about the many times he thought he was done with life, including his life-long battle against substance use disorder. After the most serious of his attempts, when he was hospitalized and almost died, he promised his family it would be the last one. Topher says that one of the ways he found towards healing was to use his lived experience to help others. He helped develop Jaspr Health, a platform that is now being used in hospitals and clinics around the United States. In our conversation, he shares some of its features, particularly the video testimonials that allow those who are in crisis to see that they are not alone in their pain.

Ep. 53 - He is a multiple suicide attempt survivor | Topher Jerome

The majority of people who are threatening suicide either present at an emergency room or they see their primary care provider in the weeks before an attempt. For too long, health officials have not known how to properly evaluate for suicidal ideation and intent. Now, Jaspr Health is saving lives. The interactive tool empowers evidence-based suicide care at scale, and improves patient outcomes and experiences. Topher Jerome, a suicide attempt survivor, takes us through this revolutionary new platform.
