Older adult mental health nurses (OAMHN) work in memory clinics, older adult mental health inpatient units (OAMHUs), older adult community mental health teams (OACMHTs), and psychiatric liaison services for older adults — conducting cognitive assessments, managing dementia, delirium, late-life depression, and anxiety, supporting care home liaison, and facilitating memory clinic outcomes. The reading load spans NICE NG97 (dementia), NICE CG103 (delirium), NICE NG90 (depression), AGS/BGS Beers Criteria, NHS England dementia care pathway, National Dementia Strategy, and journals including the International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry, Age and Ageing, and International Psychogeriatrics. Converting these PDFs to EPUB makes them searchable on mobile devices for memory clinic preparation, care home liaison, and CPD.
