American Academy of Pediatrics Recommends Depression Screening

The American Academy of Pediatrics now recommends yearly depression screening in all adolescents 12 years and up. The initial screen is 2 questions that we have been asking our adolescents for approximately 6 months. If we note a concern, we add another screening tool of 9 questions.
