The age-specific Mental Health Questionnaires are developed by the Healthy Kids Program in collaboration with the Maryland Department of Health to assist providers in assessing for mental health problems. They are not a validated evaluation tool. The mental health assessment provides an overall view of the child’s personality, behavior, social interactions, affect, and temperament. It is the responsibility of the PCP to conduct a mental health assessment on each Healthy Kids visit, beginning at 3 years of age to identify risks associated with behavioral or emotional problems.
