The progressive aging of population and the consequent increase in the prevalence of age-related mental disorders have led to a growing interest about the psychogeriatric diseases in the rehabilitation settings. This article reviews the diseases most frequently encountered in the everyday rehabilitation practice, describing the prevalence and the impact they can determine on clinical outcomes. Furthermore, it provides evidence of efficacy derived from the scientific literature with regard to specific rehabilitation approaches. Finally, it outlines possible areas of co-interest between the rehabilitative and the psychogeriatric disciplines. .
