Popis: Aim: to analyze the progression of the suicide mortality coefficient and the provision of psychosocial care network services (PCNS/RAPS in Portuguese) during the care service for people at risk or attempting intentional self-harm. Method: a historical series study, from 2001 to 2017, based on the city of Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Data from information and management reporting systems were used. Results: the annual suicide rate was 6.51 / 100,000 inhabitants. Prevalence was of males (77.26%), age group of 20 to 59 years (76.18%) and white ethnicity (86.70%). RAPS partially meets the needs and demands, which refers, mainly, to 183 hospital beds and 12 Psychosocial Care Centers. Conclusions: Suicide prevention actions need to be synergistic at all levels of health care, with qualified health professionals through lifelong education to address this complexity of psychic suffering.
