Supporting Older Adults Who Experience Delusions and Hallucinations

It can be scary when a loved one begins showing unexpected signs of mental illness in older age. This is especially true when those symptoms are not well understood, as might be the case with delusions and hallucinations.

Research Snapshot: Canadian Prescribing Guidelines for Opioid Agonist Treatment Resulting in Inequitable Access

Researchers conducted a study to compare the different opioid agonist treatment (OAT) guidelines and patient characteristics that might influence a prescriber’s decision to give out take-home doses (THD). The study was a systematic review of the published research comparing access to THD, as well as of all Canadian national and provincial OAT guidelines. The researchers found that current OAT guidelines likely contribute to inequitable THD access.
