Summary

This study tests whether a team charter—a simple written agreement that clarifies roles and coordination—can help doctors and staff screen children for depression more consistently and connect them to mental health services faster. Forty healthcare providers at a children's hospital will either use the charter or continue their usual practices for six months. The goal is to see if better teamwork leads to more timely referrals and better care for kids with depression.

What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could help clinics screen more kids for depression and connect them to care faster.
