New Evidence Based Guidelines on Seniors’ Mental Health!

The CCSMH is excited to announce the completion of four new national guidelines on the seniors’ mental health. These multidisciplinary documents will be posted on the CCSMH website (www.ccsmh.ca) by the end of April 2006 and will be available for downloading at no cost. The four guidelines are:

  • Assessment and Treatment of Delirium
  • Assessment and Treatment of Depression
  • Assessment and Treatment of Mental Health Issues in LTC Homes (focus on mood and behavioural symptoms)
  • Assessment of Suicide Risk and Prevention of Suicide

Stay tuned for pilot projects utilizing the guideline recommendations and opportunities for collaboration in the implementation process.
