| Annotation | Ageism within the National Health Service (NHS) and society as a whole has meant that some older people with bipolar disorder do not get access to the services they need.

Dr Salter is a Consultant Psychiatrist at City and Hackney Centre for Mental Health, Homerton University Hospital, London. (KJ/RH). |
