Event description

As Australia’s population ages, providing appropriate and effective mental health care for older adults will require an ongoing focus. Despite growing awareness of the harmful effects of mental illness on a person’s day-to-day functioning and relationships, adults aged 65 years and over continue to under-utilise mental health services compared to younger adults.  In Australia, results of the ABS 2007 National Survey of Mental Health and Wellbeing revealed that adults aged 75–85 years with mental health needs reported some of the lowest rates of mental health service use compared to other age groups (Slade, Johnson, Oakley Browne, Andrews, & Whiteford, 2009). 


Following these findings the Foundation wishes to extend and continue the discussion from 2020 around mental health and wellbeing of Seniors in Australia and how can they be supported better.
