Elder abuse is a common problem, but it is rarely discussed. Around the world, seniors are subjected to mistreatment or violence at the hands of their spouses, children, other family members, caregivers and service providers. We rarely think about what our lives will be like when we become senior citizens ourselves; so we don’t often think of elder abuse. By becoming informed about elder abuse – it could allow you to help someone you really care about! To learn more about elder abuse visit the following sites www.deal.org and www.ottawapolice.ca
