This study analyses the perceptions and attitudes of professionals working in care homes towards suicidal ideation and suicide attempts in this population. A total of 338 nursing home professionals from Spain participated in the study. A vignette‐based methodology was used, in which cases of suicidal ideation or suicide attempts were described, varying the gender of the actor. Responses to a questionnaire assessed perceived frequency, attention‐seeking behaviour, ageism, experienced anxiety, perceived risk and likelihood of future suicide.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/journal article10.1002/gps.70152open accessAncianoSuicidioGerontologíaGoal 3: Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages
