Originally published in 1979, this book explains why so many people
suffer behavioural changes in later life; how this affects those
around them; the services that exist to assist older people and
those who work with them and how such services can be profitably
used. A recurring theme is the interaction of the different
varieties of mental illness with one another and with physical,
emotional, social and personality factors. The book provides
detailed guidance for social workers caring for the elderly on such
topics as how an assessment of a mentally disturbed older person
can be made; procedure for removal from home under a court order
and compulsory admission to hospital; ways of communicating with
elderly people and gauging the needs of relatives and carers.
