Context
Programme context
SAMASTH (Systems Approach for Management of Self-Harm) strengthens the way hospitals identify, assess and manage self-harm. N-SPRITE describes four components: an electronic self-harm register, digitally assisted mental health assessments carried out by non-specialist staff, stronger mental health literacy among clinical staff and structured training for continuing professional development. The goal is to close the gap between emergency treatment and structured follow-up. The programme is funded by the Wellcome Trust / DBT India Alliance.
