Summary

This study looks at whether giving parents of children with chronic conditions a mental health questionnaire during clinic visits is practical and helpful. About 100 parents will fill out the survey and receive a list of support services. Researchers will follow up at 3 and 6 months to see if parents found it acceptable and if they used any services.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
mental health screening questionnaire and information resource sheet
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a simple way for hospitals to routinely check on caregiver mental health and connect them with support.
What could go wrong
This is a small feasibility study, not designed to prove the approach improves mental health. It may not work in other clinics or with different caregivers.
