About this snippets template

Safety plan and risk documentation templates for therapists, counselors and prescribers, as Text Blaze snippets. A suicide safety plan pdf gives you the six steps on paper. These snippets put the same structure where you type, in your EHR or a document, with text boxes for the client's own words and drop-down menus for the findings you record.

What's inside


  • /safetyplan, a safety plan template in six steps, warning signs through crisis lines and means safety, with a chart line recording that it was built with the client.
  • /risk, a suicide risk assessment template: ideation, plan, means and intent, risk and protective factors from menus, your level and rationale, actions taken.
  • /sinote, the per-session SI line: pick denies or endorses and the follow-up sentence opens.
  • /screenernote, a screener note: instrument (C-SSRS, PHQ-9, GAD-7, ASQ), how it was given, score with severity range worked out, action. Instruments named, never reproduced.
  • /screenfu, a same-day check-in message after a concerning screener result, for text, voicemail or email.
  • /recordsummary, a risk summary paragraph for records requests and care coordination.

Shorter snippets for commonly typed sentences, complete and ready to edit:
  • /nosi, the denial line that says you asked; /reassessed, the follow-up risk line; /protective and /rationale.
  • /means, /safetyreviewed, /outreach and /crisisline: means safety, plan reviewed, the outreach attempt, and crisis resources for client messages.

How it works


  1. Install the template and type /nosi in your next progress note. The line appears, ready to edit.
  2. Type /risk when an assessment is due. Pick from the menus, write the rationale, insert.
  3. It lands as text you can still edit, wherever you type.

Set your name, number and nearest emergency department once. Every safety plan step is typed in the client's words.
