As we grow older, mental health becomes an essential part of overall well-being. Aging often brings about emotional, psychological, and cognitive challenges that can impact quality of life. At ARUSHI HOSPITAL, Warangal, Dr. K Rajkumar (MBBS, MD Psychiatry) offers dedicated and compassionate psychiatric care tailored specifically for elderly patients.
Common concerns in older adults include memory loss, depression, sleep disturbances, irritability, social withdrawal, and conditions such as dementia or age-related cognitive decline. These changes can often go unnoticed or be mistaken for “normal aging,” delaying necessary intervention.
Dr. Rajkumar understands the unique emotional and physical health needs of seniors. With a calm, respectful, and patient-centered approach, he conducts detailed assessments to differentiate between age-related changes and treatable psychiatric conditions.
Treatment plans are customized and may include medications, behavioral therapies, family counseling, and supportive interventions to manage symptoms effectively while minimizing side effects. A key focus is preserving dignity, improving functionality, and maintaining independence for as long as possible.
Family involvement is encouraged, as caregivers play a vital role in supporting recovery. Dr. Rajkumar offers guidance to families on how to understand, respond to, and care for their aging loved ones with empathy and patience.
