'SQS Health check

Since SQS is one of the AWS managed service, I do not have to worry about the availability.

But how about monitoring the health of the SQS? Any way we could gain some visibility over the SQS service to be a error free component? We have quite many lambdas connected to it and I want to monitor to ensure there is no error/latency/timeout etc..
