| Annotation | This article is a "taster" and summarises the issues identified in the reports of the UK Inquiry on Mental Health and Well-being in Later Life (MHILLI). It looks at how the Inquiry undertook its work, how older people with mental health problems are often overlooked and what their views and experiences are of accessing services, what actions are proposed for the housing, health and care sectors, and key issues and recommendations. Age Concern is committed to auditing the response to the recommendations and will report progress in 2009. (KJ/RH). |
