Steps for completing the MHPET on-line survey

 HOW TO USE THE MHPET

The MHPET is completed by a team. This team can consist of anyone familiar or interested in the mental health services in the designated school. This may include school personnel and staff from outside agencies who work in the school.  It is helpful to included a diverse group of the following: mental health providers, program managers, health care providers (e.g. nurse practitioner, school nurse), and school staff (e.g. counselors, teachers, administrators). For programs in multiple schools, an MHPET assessment needs to be completed for each school.

The MHPET is completed online in two “sets.” First, team members individually complete the MHPET (Set One) and review the scores. Based on the results of Set One, the team determines target areas for improvement and develops and implements an action plan. Three to six months later, team members complete the MHPET again (Set Two). The team then compares Set Two scores to Set One scores to see the impact of their action planning on school mental health programs and services.

Each team must have a team leader who is responsible for notifying other team members about how to access the MHPET, reminding team members to complete the tool in a timely manner, and closing out the MHPET once all team members have completed it.
