This document is a screening tool used to check for traumatic stress in children who are 11 years old and older. The tool helps doctors and nurses find out if a child has been through something very stressful or scary, like an accident or disaster. It includes questions that help understand how the child is feeling and coping after the event. Using this tool can help healthcare workers give better care by finding kids who may need extra support or counseling because of their experiences with trauma.
