Dependence in old age

Contribution to the specialist book "Dependency diseases in old age"

Published by Hogrefe Verlag in February 2021, the multi-professional textbook "Addictive disorders in old age" is based on clinical evidence and experience and offers recommendations for prevention, diagnosis and treatment. In collaboration with various specialist associations, the AFGs "Psychiatric Nursing" and "Gerontology" were represented by Sabrina Laimbacher, Esther Indermaur and Claudia Lötscher, who compiled the nursing section. A peer-reviewed short form of the manual was published in PRAXIS in February 2021.
