This app is oriented to be used by a mental health clinician to administer the 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9). This questionnaire screens for the presence and severity of Depression in whoever submits it. When you open the app you can pick to begin the questionnaire, see summaries of previous responses, see the initial treatment selection, and assess participant response to treatment. Also, on the home-screen the user can see a reference for the PHQ-9, share the application, or possibly pay to upgrade to a Bipolar questionnaire.
