The Rant-Elder Abuse

Elder abuse affects hundreds of thousands of adults over 60 annually, including politicians and those making daily decisions. Common forms include physical abuse, financial abuse, and neglect for obvious conditions. Elders can be manipulated into engaging in criminal activities or taking advantage of their position. Financial abuse can lead to inability to access necessary medical care. It is crucial to recognize signs of elder abuse and be vigilant for potential threats. It is essential to protect and support older adults, as they are valuable members of society and should be given equal care.
