Popis: Special needs exist for older persons who have acute and chronic mental illness and disability; however, individual and societal barriers can prevent these services from reaching those in often desperate need. Intervention and expertise delivered to the urban elderly primarily in the home by psychiatric-mental health clinical nurse specialists is a viable option in primary prevention and crisis intervention.
