Age Concern Bermuda is committed to improving the mental health and well-being of older adults in our community. To ensure our programs and services address the specific needs and priorities of this population, we are conducting a Mental Health Needs Assessment Survey. This survey aims to gather insights into the mental health status, challenges, and preferences for support and education among older adults in Bermuda.
Your participation is vital. The information you provide will help us design impactful mental health education sessions and tailor services to better meet the needs of our community. The survey is confidential, and responses will only be used for program development purposes.
