Frequently Asked Questions

How often should mental health check-ins be done?

For therapeutic settings, weekly check-ins are common. For workplace wellness, monthly or bi-weekly works well. Daily check-ins can be valuable for individuals tracking their own patterns or during intensive treatment periods.

Is this form HIPAA compliant?

The form template itself doesn't collect identifiable data. HIPAA compliance depends on how you implement, store, and process the collected data. Consult with a compliance expert when using for healthcare purposes.

Can I customize this for my therapy practice?

Yes, you can modify questions, add custom mood scales, include specific therapeutic goals, or add sections relevant to your treatment approach. The conditional logic helps tailor follow-ups to individual responses.

How should I respond to concerning answers?

The form includes conditional support resources when low mood is detected. For professional settings, establish protocols for reviewing responses and following up. Always provide crisis hotline information where appropriate.

Can employees complete this anonymously?

Yes, the form can be configured to collect anonymous data for aggregate wellness insights. This helps organizations identify general wellbeing trends without identifying individuals.

What metrics should I track from these check-ins?

Key metrics include: average mood scores over time, stress level trends, energy patterns, frequently selected stressors, and correlation between factors. Look for patterns like weekly cycles or event-related changes.
