About the Geriatric Psychiatry Inpatient Program
The Geriatric Psychiatry Inpatient unit is located on the second floor of F-wing at Sunnybrook, as part of a larger adult inpatient psychiatry service.There are four designated beds for the service, and patients are admitted via the emergency department or upon referral from their outpatient psychiatrist.
The focus of the team is treating acute severe mental illness and enhancing functional autonomy in elderly patients. Generally, the length of stay is short, and a team-based approach is used to facilitate a comprehensive multidisciplinary assessment and management plan.
Visiting hours are Monday to Friday 4 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. On weekends visiting hours are 11:30 a.m. - 8:30 p.m. Arrangements can be made with the nursing desk for flexible visiting hours.
