A non-zero response to question 9 requires prompt clinical risk assessment and action according to local safeguarding and emergency procedures. Do not rely on the total score alone.
This calculator supports clinical assessment and monitoring. The PHQ-9 score is not, by itself, a diagnosis or a substitute for clinical judgement.
