Major depressive disorder comes under the “M” of Mentation of the Age-Friendly Health System model. This activity will discuss suicidal epidemiology, assessment, and treatment for Major Depressive Disorder. Although, we see a much higher focus on suicide in younger people in the lay media, men aged 65 and older constitute the highest rate per 100,000 population. Primary care practices must be equipped to provide this care as there are not enough geriatricians to meet this need. A model was developed as a joint initiative of The John A. Harford Foundation and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement along with the American Hospital Association and the Catholic Health Association of the United States to guide any practice to deliver age-friendly care. The Age-Friendly Health System designation includes assessing and acting upon the 4M’s of Age-Friendly care: What Matters, Mentation, Medication, and Mobility. This module focuses on areas under “Mentation”.
