Mental Health Screening
Mental health screening is a process where healthcare professionals assess an individual’s emotional and psychological well-being through questionnaires or brief interviews. Its goal is to identify signs of mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, or stress early, even if symptoms aren't obvious. Screening helps determine if further evaluation or treatment is needed, promoting early intervention and better outcomes. It’s a common, confidential, and non-judgmental step in maintaining overall health, similar to routine physical check-ups.
