dc.description.abstract | Aim
To describe the impact of mental health on the ability to function optimally among older adults experiencing mental health issues.
Design
This study had a descriptive qualitative design.
Methods
Six older females with a Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) score of ≥8 on either of the subscales (depression or anxiety) participated in individual interviews. All data were analysed using a phenomenological approach influenced by Giorgi.
Results
The phenomenological analysis led to a structured synthesis comprising the following three themes: (a) life situations affecting mental health, (b) consequences of mental health in everyday life and (c) strategies for maintaining mental health. | en_US |
