Nursing managers should explore both ways of reducing job stress and techniques for building social support networks in the institution to protect their members against stress and depression.

Clinical nurses can integrate the finding of this study with Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment to tailor intervention to restore older patient's physical function during hospitalisation.

PANSS-8 and PANSS-6 are clinically useful measures. Early improvement, regardless of whether PANSS-30, PANSS-8, or PANSS-6 is used, is a statistically significant predictor of response/remission.
