Older Adults Psychiatry
Our Older Adults service provides specialist mental health care for individuals later in life, recognising the complex interplay between physical health, cognition, emotional wellbeing and social circumstances. We support both patients and families with clarity, compassion and respect.
Dementia
Dementia refers to a group of conditions affecting memory, thinking and daily functioning. Early assessment allows access to treatments that may slow progression, improve quality of life and support planning for the future. We provide thorough memory assessments, clear diagnoses, treatment guidance and ongoing support for patients and carers.
Anxiety and Depression in Older Adults
Anxiety and depression are common in later life but are often overlooked or mistaken for normal ageing. Symptoms may include low mood, withdrawal, sleep problems, worry or loss of confidence. We offer careful assessment and tailored treatment plans that consider physical health, medications and life changes.
Memory Screening and Treatment
Memory concerns can be caused by many factors, including stress, mood disorders, medication effects or neurocognitive conditions. We provide structured memory screening to identify reversible causes, offer reassurance where appropriate, and guide further treatment or referral when needed.
Carer Support
Caring for a loved one with mental health or memory difficulties can be emotionally and physically demanding. We recognise carers as partners in care and provide guidance, education and emotional support to help them navigate challenges and maintain their own wellbeing.
Wellbeing Plans
Maintaining wellbeing in later life involves more than treating illness. We work with patients to develop personalised wellbeing plans that support routine, independence, emotional health and quality of life, helping individuals feel supported, respected and understood.
