Abstract
To evaluate a proactive, voluntary screening program designed to identify employees with emerging mental health risk and engage them in care. Risk was proactively identified through online screening of 344 participants. At-risk participants were offered a mental health care concierge to provide support, develop a care plan, and connect to care. Risk for common mental health conditions was identified in 244 (71%) participants, of whom 66 (27%) connected with a care concierge. Compared with participants who did not connect to a care concierge, those who did were more likely to report a financial crisis (68.2% vs 50.8%) and less likely to report verbal abuse (9.1% vs 19.6%) and difficulty meeting daily needs (12.1% vs 25.1%). Implementation of this screening program identified employees at risk for mental health conditions and facilitated connection to care.
