Behavioral Health Care - Older Adult Services

Older Adult Services provides mobile mental health services and episodic treatment services to community-dwelling older adults (60 and older) that emphasize individual needs, strengths, choices, and involvement in service planning and implementation. The staff seeks to identify those situations which could benefit from services leading to a better quality of life for older adults disabled by mental illness.

The Older Adult Services staff seek to reach homebound older adults, help the clients and their families understand mental illness, provide the needed services, information and referral that would improve the client’s life, help older adult clients obtain the highest level of independent functioning, and prevent the need for hospitalization or long term placement out of the home.

For clinic information, call (714) 850-8441
