[The impact of suicide on the caregiver].

Suicide ("the killing of one's self") raises one crucial question: what does the manifest desire of death bring out in oneself and in others? For those providing care and support who are confronted with the voluntary death of a client or patient, the question is particularly difficult to address. Using the story of a suicide in an institution, the authors reveal the nature of defense mechanisms at play within the group of caregivers. Whether it be a traumatic daze, denial, guilt or depression, these individual and collective reactions to the event hinder the mourning process and threaten cohesion within the institution. Members of an "institution in crisis" must try to relieve their tensions by refraining from withdrawal, banalities, being haunted by suicide and implementing pseudo-solutions. The purpose of such an exercise is especially to avoid the cancellation or displacement of necessary thought process about the origins, implications and consequences of a suicide taking place within an institution. The authors discuss the founding principles and guidelines for group exploration of these phenomena. Without this coming-to-terms with the crisis, the authors point out that the institution could find itself in a rut where discussion focuses only on when and where things went wrong, and how it turned its back on a suffering patient.
