Older Adults Mental Health Team

The Older Adults Mental Health Teams are part of the network of mental health services within West Dunbartonshire.  They aim to provide a locally based service that is responsive to older people with mental health needs and people with dementia in Dumbarton, Vale of Leven, Clydebank and Helensburgh areas.  The services are based at Goldenhill Resource Centre, (Clydebank area) and Cairnmhor Resource Centre, Dumbarton Joint Hospital (Dumbarton, Vale of Leven and Helensburgh areas).  The Older Adults Community Mental Health Teams support people who have a range of mental health needs, and offers specialist assessment for people who are concerned about their memory.  The teams work closely with other services such as Social Work and Alzheimer’s Scotland.  Referral to the service is through your GP.
