Older Adult Assessment and Treatment - Vancouver General Hospital
We provide 24-hour in-depth, interdisciplinary assessment and treatment for older adults experiencing acute symptoms and complex behaviours who require a secure, specialized treatment environment. Program goals for people and their families are grouped in four broad areas: mental health, physical wellness, living life to the fullest, and transitions in life and care. Stays within this program are generally three months in length, based on individual needs.
