A 13-year-old boy with a strong family history of depression
Question 1 of 5
The father of a 13-year-old boy reports his family has a strong history of depression. He questions screening for his son. What information should be provided by the nurse?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because it provides accurate information about depression screening guidelines for children. Screening for depression in children should ideally start at age 11 and be conducted annually. This is crucial given the family history of depression and the increased risk for the 13-year-old boy. Option A is too vague and does not address the importance of early screening. Option B focuses on reactive rather than proactive measures. Option C specifies an age range starting after the boy's current age, which is not in line with current guidelines. Thus, option D is the most appropriate choice for early detection and intervention.
