implemented a stringent patient selection process using the Columbia Suicide Severity
Risk Scale (C-SSRS) for eligibility criteria. Conducting their study across two hospitals
and involving over 500 patients, their implementation of the TeleSitter solution yielded
impressive results: zero adverse events reported.
