Extract

Assessment of progress in geriatric psychiatry in Canada is a difficult task. There are no good and easily accessible measures; the process of assessment is influenced by personal values and emotions; to a large extent, progress in geriatric psychiatry defies national and even subspecialty boundaries. Difficulties notwithstanding, I have attempted a brief, dispassionate assessment that focuses on training, personnel, services, professional organizations, and research activity.
