Live 5-2-1-0 Family Physician Toolkit: Healthy Habits Questionnaire (2 to 9 years)

Live 5-2-1-0, in partnership with the Chilliwack Division of Family Practice, developed and piloted a Live 5-2-1-0 Family Physician Toolkit which aimed to support Family Physicians in making BMI assessment and healthy living discussions part of regular family practice visits with children and youth. The Toolkit is based on existing evidence-based best practice, and provides information and resources to support family physicians in accurately measuring and classifying BMI percentiles in pediatric patients, assessment of healthy and unhealthy lifestyle choices, respectful discussions around healthy behaviours, motivational interviewing to support effective behaviour change, and other resources available locally to support families in making healthy choices.

The Healthy Habits Questionnaires are one of three key components of the Live 5-2-1-0 Family Physician Toolkit, which is aimed to support Family Physicians in making healthy living discussions a part of regular clinical visits with children and youth. There are 2 versions of the HHQ depending on age group: 2 to 9 years, and 10+ years.

This resource includes the questionnaire for children aged 2 to 9 years. You can also download the Live 5-2-1-0 Family Physician Toolkit: Healthy Habits Questionnaire (10+ years) by clicking here.
