Mental illness is a common
problem among nursing home residents, and a primary cause
of behavioral management problems for staff. However, threats
to mental health may also precipitate behavioral problems.
Both types of problems are briefly reviewed in this introductory
program. An emphasis is placed on accurate identification
of the underlying causes of the difficult behavior, and
on the staff's management of their own feelings about problem
behaviors.
