There is a world-wide increase in the life span of the

population which necessitates an urgent need to focus attention on health services in all aspects of care for the elderly population. This includes; medical, psychological, rehabilitative, social and family related issues.

The idea of organizing this Conference sprung out of the need to disseminate information about the latest scientific and evidence-based methods for medical diagnosis, treatment and care for psychiatric conditions in old age.

The Conference will include a wide range of interested practitioners; physicians, nurses, psychologists, social workers, physical and occupational therapists, care givers and families. The main conference topics will discuss mental health problems experienced by older persons, and the latest findings in the field of psychological assessment, psychiatric and rehabilitative therapies. The Conference will include a number of workshops to discuss the Conference topics in depth.
