This presentation at a geriatrics conference is targeted at physicians. It raises awareness of elder abuse as a rarely examined cause of morbidity and mortality.
Elder abuse is a widespread problem affecting millions of older Americans each year. It most often occurs at the hands of family caregivers and goes unreported. Common types of elder abuse include physical, emotional, sexual, and financial abuse as well as neglect. Those at highest risk tend to be females over 80 with physical or cognitive impairments. Screening tools can help identify abuse, while interventions aim to increase awareness, reporting, and support for victims and their caregivers. Adult protective services investigate reports of abuse and provide assistance.
Dr. Steve Tam of UC Irvine explains the growing issue of elder abuse and why it is likely to grow in the coming decades. Know the signs of different types of abuse and how to respond to suspected cases.
This document defines elder abuse and neglect, describes the various types (physical, psychological, sexual, etc.), risk factors, theories of causation, barriers to detection and treatment, and recommendations. Elder abuse is mistreatment of older adults and can include acts of commission or omission. Self-neglect is the most common form and difficult to detect. Abuse can be perpetrated by caregivers, family members, or strangers and affects over 1.8 million older Americans annually.
As seniors grow older, they will become more physically & mentally frail. Because of this, they’re less able to stand up to bullying and/or fight back if attacked by other people.
Elder abuse is defined as any knowing, intentional, or negligent act by a caregiver or other person that causes harm or risk of harm to an elderly person. Elder abuse can take several forms, including physical, emotional, sexual, and financial abuse as well as health care fraud. Some signs of elder abuse are unexplained injuries, weight loss, or financial exploitation. Prevention strategies include educating those who work with elders, providing support to caregivers, and reporting any suspected abuse.
The document provides information for law enforcement on investigating elderly abuse. It outlines physiological changes common in aging populations like vision/hearing loss and increased risk of health issues. The elderly often live alone and in poverty. Officers should communicate respectfully, assess living conditions, medication, and note any unmet needs. If abuse is suspected, the officer must immediately report it and remove any threats to ensure victim safety. As Florida's elderly population grows, effectively serving this group is important.

Some signs of elder abuse are unusual or unexplained fractures, decubitus ulcers, unusual bruises, and unusual burns. Healthcare providers should screen older adult patients for abuse when alone using questions about safety, medications, finances, and physical harm. Resources for reporting elder abuse include Adult Protective Services and the Long Term Care Resident Protection.
This Power Point presentation was used for a one-hour webinar, presented by Judith Wahl of the Advocacy Centre for the Elderly. It includes a discussion of what elder abuse is, who is being victimized, why people don't always seek help, how ageism affects the way we address elder abuse, and what people need to know to prevent and respond to abuse.

This document discusses elder abuse, including definitions, statistics, types of abuse, and potential indicators of abuse. It defines elder abuse as harmful acts toward elderly adults, including physical, sexual, emotional/psychological, financial exploitation, and neglect. Statistics show most elder abuse is unreported due to victims knowing their abusers. Types of abuse include physical abuse, violations of basic rights, self-neglect, sexual abuse, psychological abuse, and financial abuse. Potential indicators of each type are provided. Case scenarios demonstrate examples of neglect and different types of abuse.
Elder abuse can take many forms, including physical, emotional, sexual, and financial abuse as well as neglect. It is important to recognize the signs of abuse and report suspicions even if you are unsure, as only about 1 in 14 cases are reported. Most abuse is committed by adult relatives or caregivers, and abused seniors have a 300% higher risk of death. The document then outlines a case study of a son neglecting his father and how the abuse was discovered by police.
How to Spot Elder Abuse and Mistreatment-
This slideshow represents a synopsis of information on the signs that an elder is being abused or mistreated systematically or by someone close to them.
Following our attendance to the Elder Abuse Conference in NYC on June 5, 2013, my colleague and I developed a series of presentations to provide in our community to increase awareness of this important issue.

This document discusses mandatory reporting of elder abuse in Kansas, particularly for those with dementia or Alzheimer's. It notes that licensed professionals are required to report suspected abuse and outlines who are considered mandatory reporters under Kansas law. The document reviews definitions of key terms, circumstances that require a report to be made, protections for reporters, and contact information for reporting abuse.
Elder mistreatment involves harm or risk of harm to elderly persons by caregivers or trusted individuals. It can take various forms including physical, psychological, sexual, financial abuse, and neglect. Risk factors relate to characteristics of victims, abusers, and external stressors. Abuse may occur at home or in institutions. Prevention requires education while management requires a multidisciplinary approach including medical care, social services, and legal assistance. Identification of abuse involves recognizing physical and behavioral signs, with healthcare providers playing an important role.
The document summarizes key findings from a WHO-INPEA action research project on elder abuse. The project involved focus groups in 8 countries with older adults and healthcare professionals. Two main findings emerged: 1) older adults primarily blamed structural factors like inadequate social services for mistreatment, termed "societal abuse"; 2) experiences of disrespect, such as in healthcare and transportation, were viewed as abuse itself and a cause of other abuse. The implications challenge the micro-level view of elder abuse and identify the need to address broader social and policy issues to prevent abuse.
Elder Abuse - Public Health Nurses' Experiences anne spencer
This study explored public health nurses' experiences with identifying and managing cases of elder abuse perpetrated against community-dwelling older adults with dementia. Through interviews with 5 public health nurses, the study found identifying hidden abusive relationships was complex, due to issues like capacity assessments and lack of support. The nurses experienced ethical challenges in balancing the needs of clients and families. They felt isolated in their role and uncertain without supervision or multidisciplinary collaboration. The study concludes public health nurses need more education, clinical supervision, and strengthened legislative frameworks to safely support vulnerable elders experiencing abuse.
3. National substance abuse treatment trends in the US show that in 2002, 3.5 million people received treatment, mostly for alcohol (54%) or drugs (46%).

Europeanization in the Western Balkans Elmir Badalov
This document discusses the EU's use of policy conditionality to influence border management and other policies in South Eastern European countries seeking EU membership. It outlines the Stabilization and Association Process which made EU membership a potential prospect in exchange for meeting conditions like reforming court systems and border control. Case studies of Croatia and Macedonia show how both countries implemented EU demands to improve border security and management. The EU's political conditionality has been an effective tool for influencing reforms, but its success depends on a clear membership perspective and low domestic political costs of compliance.

Emotional well-being conditions are more common in women than men. Some key differences include higher rates of depression, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, and eating disorders in women. While men and women may share a mental health diagnosis, the symptoms and appropriate treatment can differ between genders. Biological factors like hormonal fluctuations, as well as socio-cultural factors like financial challenges and caregiving responsibilities, help explain why mental illnesses often manifest differently in women compared to men.
The document discusses addictive personalities and the reasons why some people may be more susceptible to addiction. It defines addiction and notes that addictive personality disorder makes one more likely to engage in addictive behaviors like substance abuse or gambling. Factors that can contribute to an addictive personality include impulsivity, stress, childhood trauma, genetics, mental illness, and early exposure to drugs. However, the decision to become addicted is ultimately personal choice, even if certain traits or experiences increase vulnerability.
This study examined women's use of prescription drugs to cope with sexual assault. The researchers interviewed 102 sexual assault survivors about their demographic characteristics, mental and physical health, and past 6-month drug use. They found that 43% of women reported using prescription sedatives, tranquilizers or antidepressants, primarily obtained from doctors. Employed women and those with mental or physical health problems were more likely to use drugs. While most obtained drugs legally, some resorted to illicit use. Only half disclosed their assault to doctors. The implications suggest that doctors may inadequately address sexual trauma and its causes, instead prescribing drugs that could enable dependency.
The causes and effects of drug addiction circumscribed both the reasons for a person to start using drugs and the aftermath of becoming a addicted.

The document discusses several factors that influence why women commit crimes. There is no single or simple explanation. Biological brain differences may make women less likely to take risks, while social and environmental factors like poverty, abuse, mental illness, and lack of opportunities play a major role in driving women to crime. Family problems are a significant factor, and women who commit crimes often experience various forms of prior victimization. The crimes women commit tend to be less aggressive in nature.

The document discusses research on whether mental illness is a factor in why women stalk. It summarizes several studies that found high rates of mental illness, particularly mood disorders, personality disorders, and psychosis, among female stalkers. The document also notes that women stalkers are generally less threatening and violent than male stalkers, but mental illness can interfere with decision making and cause stalking behaviors even outside of acute psychotic episodes. Support groups are proposed as an intervention to help women with mental illnesses learn healthier ways to cope with rejection and prevent stalking.

The document discusses the social construction of psychological knowledge and issues with traditional psychological diagnoses and treatment approaches. It argues that (1) psychological knowledge and what is considered "normal" is shaped by social and cultural factors rather than being objective truths; (2) traditional diagnoses and the DSM pathologize human experiences and behaviors while neglecting social and environmental influences; and (3) alternative, feminist and family-focused approaches aim to empower clients and address social and systemic issues rather than just treating individuals. The role of language, power dynamics in therapy, and assumptions of objectivity in research are also critically examined.

Gender Issues Play Vital Role in Women’s Addiction, Treatment and Recovery
1. Gender Issues Play Vital Role in Women’s
Addiction, Treatment and Recovery
Professionals in the addictions field finally realize that women
have special needs in addiction treatment. Women become
intoxicated and dependent on some drugs more quickly than men,
and are more apt to suffer from co-occurring mental health
disorders such as depression and anxiety. In spite of these findings
by multiple sources, women are less likely than men to receive
treatment for addictions or comorbid conditions.
Women often face different issues from men related to addiction
and treatment, including development of medical and social
consequences. Women also face co-occurring substance abuse and
mental health disorders more frequently than men do, and are more
likely to have been a victim of sexual assault or other violent
crimes.
