While the detrimental ramifications of the COVID-19 outbreak on the mental
wellbeing of the general public continue to unravel, older adults seem to be at
high risk. As the geriatric population continues to grow in the Middle East and
North Africa (MENA) region, it is essential to explore the influence of this
outbreak on geriatric mental health, a topic often neglected. In this review, we
depict the status of geriatric psychiatry in the Arab countries of the MENA
region, exploring the variations from one nation to another. While some have a
null exposure to the field, resources and expertise in other countries range from
very limited to extensive. Furthermore, we highlight the measures implemented in
the Arab region to address mental health during the COVID-19 outbreak; these tend
to be insufficient when targeting the geriatric population. Finally, we provide
short- and long-term recommendations to stakeholders that aim at enhancing the
mental healthcare of older adults in the Arab countries of the MENA region,
particularly during this pandemic.
