The psychiatrist's involvement with aged patients
Abstract
The author studied via questionnaire psychiatrists' involvement with older patients in relation to their own ages and the nature of their practices. Older psychiatrists see a higher proportion of older patients, advocate more comprehensive treatment, and find older patients more interesting and gratifying. Psychiatrists in general psychiatry and those who have a primarily inpatient practice see the largest proportion of older patients.
