In a significant advancement for elderly care, the Institute of Human Behaviour and Allied Sciences (IHBAS) in New Delhi has announced the launch of a DM (super-specialty) course in Geriatric Mental Health, set to commence in the 2025-26 academic session. This initiative positions IHBAS as one of only three institutions in India, alongside King George's Medical University and the National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences, to provide advanced training in this crucial field. The program aims to address the increasing mental health challenges faced by the elderly, including dementia, depression, and anxiety, which often go unnoticed and untreated. To support this effort, IHBAS is establishing a dedicated Department of Geriatric Mental Health, transitioning from a limited outpatient model to a comprehensive system that includes both outpatient and inpatient care. The department will also introduce specialized clinics, such as a Memory Clinic for dementia and a Caregiver Support Clinic, to assist families in managing these conditions. With India's elderly population rapidly growing, the need for specialized mental health services is becoming increasingly urgent, highlighting the importance of this new program.
