Predictors of depressive symptoms in older adults living in care homes in Thailand (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Tosangwarn, S., Clissett, P., & Blake, H. (2016, October). Predictors of depressive symptoms in older adults living in care homes in Thailand. Presented at 13th International Conference on Psychiatric-Mental Health Nursing, London, UK

Background: Most Thai people reject the idea of letting their ageing parents live in a care home due to the belief that a care home is a place for poor older adults who have no family. These beliefs could influence the perception of living in a care... Read More about Predictors of depressive symptoms in older adults living in care homes in Thailand.
