Abstract

Aging mentally retarded persons are at risk of developing mental health difficulties. Problems in case detection, diagnosis, and the application of standard treatment interventions must be addressed to ensure quality mental health services to aging mentally retarded adults. Also highlighted are physiological/medical conditions which can further complicate the aging mentally retarded person's life adjustment.
