Older People's Mental Health

Many older people may have mental health issues at some point, due to:

​

• Illness

• Frailty and loss of independence

• Grief and loss of a loved one

• Financial stress

• A change in living arrangements

• Increasing social isolation

​

If you or one of your team are concerned about a resident, please get in touch. We will commence a process of assessment, management and evaluation of depression, anxiety, behavioural issues and mood disturbances in liaison with the family, GP, allied health and/or other medical specialists. In addition we offer training to your staff to assist with the mentoring and knowledge exchange of mental health for collaborative care.
