What is Elder Abuse?

Elder abuse is commonly divided into the following three categories:

  • Phyiscal Abuse / Neglect
  • Psychological Abuse
  • Financial Abuse / Exploitation

Physical abuse or neglect occurs when an elderly individual is physically harmed.  Physical harm can come from actions such as hitting, biting, slapping, punching and pushing.  Physical harm can also be a result of neglect.  This occurs when an elderly person is not properly cared for and lacks basic necessities such as food, water and hygiene.

Psychological abuse, or emotional abuse, is a result of humiliating, ignoring, taunting, and/or manipulating an elder person.

Financial abuse, or exploitation, is a result of the improper use of an elderly person’s money and/or real property such as real estate.
