Mental health literacy among older adults in Shanghai: a descriptive qualitative study
This study reveals significant gaps in mental health literacy among older adults, underscoring the necessity for multifaceted interventions. It calls for concerted efforts from individuals, families, and society to bolster mental health knowledge, challenge stigma, and encourage supportive behaviors. By integrating these approaches with the 'Healthy China 2030' policy, we aim to enhance mental health literacy for the aged.
