What is Considered Elder Abuse?

Elder abuse is defined as neglect, isolation, physical abuse, financial abuse, abduction, abandonment, or any other form of mistreatment of an elderly person that results in pain and suffering.

Elderly person with nurseBelow are some of the red flags that indicate elder abuse:

  • If your elderly loved one is suffering from physical abuse, you might notice injuries that cannot be explained, including broken bones, cuts, and bruises. He or she might also be traumatized from the experience and emotional signs of abuse, such as anxiety and fear, especially when caregivers are nearby.
  • Abuse can also come in the form of neglect. If your elderly loved one is being neglected, you might notice poor hygiene, malnutrition, dehydration, bedsores, and other signs that indicate a lack of care.
  • It is also not uncommon for elderly individuals to suffer from financial abuse, especially if they are suffering from a cognitive degenerative disease, such as Alzheimer’s disease. If your loved one is being financially abused, you might notice large sums of money missing from his or her accounts, or missing heirlooms and other property.

Other behavioral indicators you should be aware of include confusion, depression, withdrawal, defensiveness, anger, hesitation to speak openly, and providing excuses for injuries that do not make sense.

If you suspect a caregiver is abusing your elderly loved one, hire an elder abuse attorney as soon as possible to investigate the case and hold the responsible parties liable. You should also take photos of your loved one's injuries and document any other signs of the abuse that can potentially strengthen the case.
