[Gerontopsychiatry--psychiatry for the aged].

The multimorbidity is increasing with high age. The number of elderly and especially of the very old is going to increase in the next decades. This leads to a necessity to introduce more profound undergraduate and postgraduate training for those who are likely to work with and care for the elderly. The following article describes in detail the most important psychiatric disturbances in the old age, their etiology--as far as we know it--, clinical picture and treatment possibilities.

Group therapy with demented elderly.

In the work with the demented hospitalised elderly, mostly suffering from senile dementia of Alzheimer's type, we introduced group therapy. As known from the literature the group setting and the group leader must undergo important changes in the work with the demented elderly in comparison to the therapeutical work with the nondemented elderly. Our experiences, different evaluations attempts and the limitations of this therapeutical approach will be discussed.
