Abstract

Introduction: With the availability of better health care services and decrease in mortality rates the elderly population has increased significantly over the last couple of decades.1 Psychiatric illness in the elderly is compounded by mental morbidities due to ageing of the brain, problems associated with physical health, socio-economic factors such as breakdown of the family support systems, and decrease in economic independence.
