Geriatric mental health services
Geriatric mental health services are specialized healthcare programs that support older adults experiencing mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, memory problems, or mood changes. These services provide assessment, therapy, medication management, and support to help seniors maintain emotional well-being, improve quality of life, and manage mental health conditions effectively. They often involve a team of healthcare professionals experienced in aging-related challenges, focusing on holistic care that considers physical health, social connections, and personal circumstances. These services aim to promote mental resilience and ensure older adults receive compassionate, appropriate mental health support.
