What action is typically required when a suicide has been confirmed?

When a suicide has been confirmed, notifying a coroner is a critical action that must be taken. This is because the coroner's office is responsible for investigating the circumstances surrounding the death, determining the official cause of death, and handling related legal matters. This includes the necessity of conducting an autopsy to ascertain the cause and context of the suicide, especially if it occurred under suspicious circumstances or in public.

In situations like this, immediate family notification is often handled by law enforcement or the coroner's office to ensure the family receives the information in a sensitive manner. Additionally, transporting the individual to a medical facility or scheduling a psychological evaluation is not applicable since the individual is deceased, and those actions pertain to living individuals who are at risk.
