Abstract

The somewhat alarming incidence of mental disorders among institutionalized elderly persons has necessitated improved ways of dealing with their behavioral health needs. Because conventional psychotherapy has not been feasible with this population, alternative types of behavioral health interventions have been suggested. The present paper lists a number of elements which may be helpful in delivering focused behavioral health services to residents in long-term care facilities.
