Behaviour Management
Behaviour Managementcan be more effective and longer lasting than drug therapies in managing mental health issues. CliniCall’s Psychologists provide assessments as well as treatments for both your residents and staff.
Studies suggest that 80% or more of elderly nursing home residents suffer from some sort of mental disorder. Only a very small percentage ever receive any care from mental health practitioners.
There is considerable evidence suggesting that psychological interventions, for behavioural problems in older people in residential care, can deliver substantial cost savings.
CliniCall’s therapists aim to enhance the well-being of residents and lessen the burden on facility staff by assisting with the behaviour management of residents.
