outcomes after at least 3 months of treatment as evidenced by
changes in scores

Cycle 3: Try the new process on all patient with suspected

Cycle 2: Test administering the SCARED in a new way based on lessons
learned. Test MOA involvement in giving out and scoring the screen
Use of Screening Tools
Cycle 1: Test having completing SCARED screen with 1 patient. How long does the screen take? How will
you score it? How will you discuss the results with the family?
