Eligibility

People over the age of 65 who are experiencing psychiatric symptoms such as memory decline, confusion, depression, anxiety, psychosis (e.g. hallucinations, delusions, paranoia) or other mental health symptoms that affect the person’s ability to manage their daily living activities.

Referral

Call your local mental health and substance use team and speak to an intake staff member who will direct your request to the right person. Our services are voluntary. We accept self-referrals and referrals from family doctors, family members, neighbours or anyone else supporting the person in the community.

If you have concerns about a person or loved one and you have referred them to our services, we will do our best to inform, encourage and engage the individual in our services; however, we are not able to force the person or your loved one to accept our services if he/she is not ready or willing to do so.

If you feel the person or your loved one is at risk of abuse or neglect or being abused or neglected because of a mental health concern, notify your mental health and substance use centre immediately and they will look into the person’s situation.

Language (s) Offered

If you do not speak or understand English well enough to have medical conversations, we can get a medical interpreter in your language. The medical interpreter will help you communicate with your doctor and health care team. We can get the interpreter by phone or in person. Please be patient. It might take time. You do not pay for this.

For informal conversations, your family and friends can help you explain what you need to your health care team.
