Registering for Censeo
If you are sent a link to Censeo we encourage you to take time to register and fill out the questionnaire.
Before you can fill out the questionnaire you will be guided through a registration process. Once you are registered, the Censeo questionnaire will be available to complete.
Completing the Questionnaire
Because of the unique way Censeo is designed, the questionnaire is tailored to the individual; so one person will be asked a different set of questions to another, depending on the complexity of their need.
Be open and honest with your answers. To get the most accurate result and be guided to the best care for you, truthful answers, even to difficult questions will help paint a clearer picture of your needs.
On average it takes about one hour to complete the assessment. However, because the questionnaire is adaptive, it will vary depending on how many questions are asked (between 20 minutes and 2 hours). Don't worry, you don't have to do it all at once. You can log out and continue later.
Remember, Censeo is designed to help identify your needs so that you can receive help as soon as possible, so it's a good idea to fill out the questionnaire as soon as you can.
FAQs
What if I don't want to use Censeo?
Completing the questionnaire is optional, however the questions need to be asked to identify your needs. Censeo mirrors the rich process of a face-to-face psychiatric assessment, in a digital form. If you opt out of using Censeo the assessment process will be done by a Mental Health Practitioner instead. This could result in longer waiting times.

Can I see the report Censeo generates about me?
It is our policy to keep you informed about your care and involve you in the process. To do this we will share our findings with you. The report generated by Censeo is aimed at mental health professionals and may contain terminology that is confusing to non-mental health professionals. We feel that it is more meaningful to go through the report with a member of our mental health team.
