  • Title: Psychogeriatrics and general practice in Australia.
    Author: Brodaty H, Draper BM, Lie DC.
    Journal: Int J Psychiatry Med; 1997; 27(3):205-13. PubMed ID: 9565724.
    Abstract:
    We describe the interface between general practice and psychogeriatrics in Australia. While aged care services are complex and there are serious deficiencies in the management of the elderly, several initiatives appear set to improve the level of care. Economic considerations, mutual education of general practitioners and psychogeriatricians, and social factors are strong determinants of good primary care of the mental health needs of older people.
