 bstract:Mood disorders such as bipolar disorder and depression are prevale
 nt and often debilitating mental health conditions that affect the quality
  of life of individuals and are among the leading causes of disability wor
 ldwide, affecting global health outcomes. These disorders adversely affect
  individuals' productivity, relationships, and overall well-being. Mood di
 sorders can be difficult and costly to manage. Screening tools, such as th
 e Mood Disorder Questionnaire (MDQ) and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9
  (PHQ-9), can aid in the screening and early detection of mood disorders. 
 However, effective implementation of these tools depends on educating heal
 thcare providers with the essential knowledge and skills needed to use and
  implement these screening tools effectively. This scholarly project sough
 t to educate health care providers on the use of screening tools for mood 
 disorders, specifically PHQ-9 and MDQ. Six community healthcare providers 
 participated in the project. The educational intervention included a prete
 st-posttest survey, qualitative questions, and program evaluation. A 30-mi
 nute educational session included a PowerPoint presentation and a question
 -and-answer segment. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the resul
 ts. The findings indicated the educational intervention improved healthcar
 e provider knowledge of the use of both screening tools, PHQ-9 and MDQ. Im
 provements in MDQ scores were statistically significant. 听PHQ-9 scores sh
 owed positive gains, though results were not significant. The education pr
 ogram was well-received and provided important information to support prof
 essional practice. All participants rated the program's overall quality as
  excellent. By educating healthcare providers on the use of screening tool
 s specifically MDQ and PHQ-9, the project supports ongoing initiatives to 
 enhance early detection of mood disorders in clinical practice, ultimately
  improving patient outcomes and the quality of care. Keywords: 鈥淢ood Dis
