It covers the latest information on the varied role of psychiatrists in today's educational system and is designed to stimulate psychiatrists' participation in the school setting.

In response to the growing concern for mentally ill minority elders, the Task Force on Ethnic Minority Elderly was established in 1988. Since then, this task force has studied the needs of the elderly population and analyzed the existing service models designed to meet those needs.This Task Force Report presents research on the psychiatric care of African American, American Indian, Alaskan Native, Pacific and Asian American elders. The report not only addresses the vast issues confronting ethnic minority elderly, but it also makes a series of recommendations for action at the federal, state, local, and psychiatric community levels.

Developed by experts in the field, the American Psychiatric Association Practice Guideline for the Treatment of Patients With Alzheimer's Disease and Other Dementias of Late Life provides invaluable assistance to psychiatrists and other mental health professionals who care for patients with Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Lewy body disease, Pick's disease, and other frontal lobe dementias. This inclusive guideline contains important advice on the development of an individual, long-term treatment plan that can accommodate the changing nature of these illnesses and address new issues as they arise. It outlines psychiatric management--the cornerstone of the treatment of patients with dementia--and then reviews the specific psychosocial interventions and pharmacological options available. The guideline then discusses special considerations for elderly and dementia populations and describes the factors that may modify treatment decisions, including comorbid conditions, site-specific issues, and demographic and social factors. Directions for future research are also examined.

The APA makes Practice Guidelines available to help improve patient care and give members access to the latest information and research. Intended as a professional resource and not a "standard of care".

Quick Reference Guides (QRGs) contains all of the published APA Practice Guidelines. QRGs are created by abstracting the crucial information from the text of the full guideline, with greatest emphasis placed on retraining the material most directly relevant to the treatment decision.

Primary care physicians are often the first or only medical professionals to see patients with psychiatric and mental disorders. Until now, they have lacked a diagnostic tool geared to the primary care setting. The DSM-IV-PC is the first manual of mental disorders created specifically for use by primary care physicians. Developed as a collaborative effort between psychiatric and primary care organizations, this concise, user-friendly manual is a must-have resource for every primary care physician. Unlike other versions of DSM-IV, this manual is compatible with how the physician manages the primary care visit. To aid the primary care physician's diagnosis, DSM-IV-PC focuses on common conditions, such as anxiety, depression, and substance abuse. It is epidemiologically oriented, with the most common and most important disorders listed first. This unique publication includes conditions that are common in primary care but that are not as well characterized in DSM-IV. Using an algorithmic format, DSM-IV-PC assists practitioners in moving from presenting symptoms to diagnosis. Symptoms and features that discriminate among disorders are emphasized. Students and residents will also benefit from this new format, making this text an outstanding curriculum tool for medical education. Additional benefits of DSM-IV-PC include its compatibility with other prevailing coding schema, including DSM and ICD-9-CM. Thus, it enhances reliable, valid communication among health specialties and ensures applicability for coding and reimbursement. It also includes an abbreviated description of disorders usually first diagnosed in childhood.
