RESULTS
A total of 37% met the criteria for mild cognitive impairment and 44% met the criteria for clinical depression. Scores on the BI (M = 79.5) and FAI (M = 18.4) incidated limitations in activity levels. Quality of life levels was low.
CONCLUSIONS
High levels of psychological morbidity, severe disability across a range of domains and poor quality of life were reported.
