1. Tridiuum1 Mental Health Your “Emotional Vital Signs”
What do I need to do?
Respond to questions based upon how you have been feeling over the past 1-2 weeks.
What is it?
The MH assessment is a clinical questionnaire that helps to track your symptoms to ensure that your treatment plan is working.
The MH assessment also alerts your provider if your symptoms are not improving, so that together you can make any changes necessary to the treatment in order to help you feel better.
Having a snapshot of your symptoms before each session helps you and your provider work together to prioritize the areas that are most important to address in your session.
Who needs to complete the questionnaire?
Adult members attending medication or individual therapy appointments.
As part of your IOP or other group therapy programs, you may be asked to complete the questionnaire.
Patients as young as 12 years old may be asked to complete the MH Assessment.
How is the information about my relationship with my provider used?
The last few questions of the MH Assessment ask about your last session with your provider. Those questions help your provider to know if you are on the same page. You would be doing your treatment a great service by answering these questions honestly. Your provider is never “graded” or disciplined based on your responses to any questions on the MH assessment; they are there only to make sure that therapy is as useful as possible for you.
