Opis

This case-based book will offer primary care practitioners support in managing older people with symptoms due to mental health problems. The full range of disorders is covered, including depression and anxiety, delirium, psychosis, and the dementias. The discussion of depression and anxiety encompasses diagnosis and management, assessment of risk of self-harm, evidence for pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions, and models of care integrating health and social care. Clear guidance is provided on the identification and management of symptoms of delirium and different forms of psychosis in older people. The coverage of the dementias includes presentation, initial management, risks to self and others, referral to specialist care and care of older people in residential and nursing homes. Each chapter is co-written by authors from different professional backgrounds and draws on up-to-date national and international research and guidelines. The book will assist greatly in the commissioning and delivery of evidence-based practice.§
