Treatment for Older Persons
Our Healthy Minds Day Program is offered exclusively to older patients who would benefit from outpatient support to manage their mental health.
Inpatient Treatment
We have a qualified team who are attentive and understanding to meet the needs of the elderly and ensure the comfort of all patients. We provide assessment, management and support for people who have a mental illness over the age of 65 years, and we encourage family members and carers to get involved in helping their loved ones plan for their future.
Our assessment includes cognitive and general functioning to provide our patients with the best programs to meet their needs.
Our inpatient programs focus on educational, therapeutic and diversional activities.
Therapeutic interventions are provided on the basis of individual need and evidence-based guidelines depending on the diagnosis of each patient.
To access this program individuals will need a referral to a Psychiatrist with admission rights to our hospital.
Individuals must complete this program to access our Day Programs.
