Abstract
Project Aim: The aim of this project was to increase the diabetic population's rate of screening for depression using Clinical Decision Support (CDS) tools and alerts. These tools prompt the clinical care team to use a standardized Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ)-2 depression screening tool and PHQ-9 for depression symptom level assessment. Further aims included improving the patient's awareness about depression and access to resources regarding diagnosis and treatment.
