Screening for Mental Health, Inc., is a non-profit organization and does not provide any medical, psychological, diagnostic or treatment services to its customers or users. For accurate diagnosis of suicidality, depression and alcohol problems or other mental illnesses, participants need to call and/or be seen by qualified healthcare professionals. We do not assume any legal obligation to follow up with individual users.

Screening for Mental Health Inc., its staff and agents, shall not be liable for claims or damages and expressly disclaims any and all liability of any nature for any action, or non-action, taken as a result of the information generated by this website or any of the programs of SMH utilized by the customers, callers, clients or online users.

Results from the Suicide Risk Questionnaire and Depression Risk Questionnaire are not diagnostic, but merely indicate the presence, or lack thereof, of symptoms that are consistent, or inconsistent with depression and/or suicidality. Negative responses to the questionnaires do not rule out suicidality and/or depression, and positive responses do not conclusively establish suicidality and/or depression. A diagnostic evaluation by a healthcare professional is always necessary to determine whether or not there is the presence/absence of depression/suicidality.

Should the online user respond in a way that might indicate a serious or potentially life-threatening problem for themselves or someone else, a webpage will ordinarily be displayed urging the individual to visit the nearest emergency room or call 911. Please note that in some cases the webpage may not be displayed on your computer for technical reasons, and Screening for Mental Health does not assume any legal obligation to ensure that the webpage is displayed. Even if the webpage is not displayed, any online user who believes that he or someone else may have a serious or potentially life-threatening problem is encouraged to visit the nearest emergency room or call 911.
