Caution is Key When Prescribing for Older Adults.
Journal of Psychosocial Nursing and Mental Health Services 2017 December 2
The end of the year can trigger the recognition that aging adults are no longer as independent as they once were. Psychiatric nurses and other mental health professionals may see an increase in older adults being referred for treatment. As the most appropriate psychosocial/psychotherapeutic and psychopharmacological treatments are identified for older adults, there are some unique challenges inherent in coordinating the care of this population. It is especially important for prescribing psychiatric advanced practice nurses to update, review, and cross-reference older patients' lists of medications at every appointment. Although the obstacles to treating older adults may appear daunting, prudent, responsible, cautious practice should be exercised to ensure they achieve improved functionality, maintain safety, reduce risks, and enhance their quality of life.
