Older Adult Treatment Service
Clinical interventions for the older adult track focus on the
psychiatric needs of the older population. Psychiatric evaluations,
differential diagnosis and assessment of health status are all essential to
establishing the most appropriate treatment for the older adult. The
primary treatment approach is group programming, and family guidance
and counseling, with individualized attention paid to restoring
self-esteem and dignity.
