safety plan
Precautionary action outline
A safety plan is a set of strategies and resources prepared in advance for managing a crisis, especially a mental health emergency.
In clinical contexts, it typically lists warning signs, coping techniques, and people to contact when someone feels at risk of self-harm: Her therapist helped her create a safety plan.
Safety plans also appear in domestic violence situations, outlining steps for leaving an abuser safely.
