Learn how good and well-intentioned caregivers become suspected elder abusers by Adult Protective Services and the police. Caregiving expert Pamela D Wilson shares how Adult Protective Services becomes involved and what family members can do if they are suspected of committing elder abuse.
Family members are the most common perpetrators through unintentional or intentional acts of financial, psychological, physical, or sexual abuse. Neglect and self-neglect are also categories of elder abuse. Burned-out or exhausted caregivers can unintentionally neglect care for elderly loved ones.
In podcast episode 204 and the related transcript, Pamela D Wilson shares her professional experiences of how family members or friends can become suspected perpetrators by not considering the consequences of how mandatory reporters and others view their actions.
The percentage of elder abuse by family members varies by source. However, calls to report elder abuse made to the National Center on Elder Abuse (NCEA) Resource Line cite a statistic of 46.8% (1)
