O knihe
Addressing the most commonly-encountered mental health disorders, this practical,
evidence-based resource for advanced practice nurses, nurse educators, and
graduate nursing students delivers the knowledge and tools needed to effectively
assess, examine, diagnose, treat, and promote optimal mental health in the geriatric
patient. Written by recognized experts in the field of geropsychiatry, this handbook
encompasses updated DSM-5 diagnoses and criteria, psychopharmacology, the
psychiatric exam, and systems-level approaches to care. It also considers the
relationships of the geriatric patient to family, community, and healthcare providers
as they contribute to successful treatment.
This handbook examines the biological changes associated with aging and
addresses common mental health disorders of older adults. It presents clear clinical
guidelines and demonstrates the use of relevant clinical tools and scales with
illustrative examples. Additionally, the text delves into cultural differences that
impact treatment and addresses the distinct needs of patients during a pandemic
such as COVID-19.
