The COVID-19 pandemic has created unprecedented numbers of isolated seniors, putting them at additional risk for abuse and neglect. #StopElderAbuse #ElderAbuse #ElderNeglect #ProtectOurElders #NoElderAbuse

Elderly abuse isn’t always outwardly visible or immediately noticeable. Oftentimes, it can be so subtle that it goes undetected. Here are just some of the signs to look out for, but it’s important to pay close to attention to anything out of the ordinary for your loved one. Mysterious bruises Reoccurring injuries... Unexplainable financial patterns New or worsening sleeping problems Sudden nervous or anxious behavior Withdrawing from socialization #StopElderAbuse #ElderAbuse #ElderNeglect #ProtectOurElders #NoElderAbuse

Advocating for the elderly is a responsibility and a great privilege. Share if you agree. #StopElderAbuse #ElderAbuse #ElderNeglect #ProtectOurElders #NoElderAbuse

In the wake of the pandemic, many of our most vulnerable citizens are left behind in the form of increased abuse and neglect. With visitation privileges now limited at nursing facilities across the country, family members of the elderly should remain more vigilant than ever before. #StopElderAbuse #ElderAbuse #ElderNeglect #ProtectOurElders #NoElderAbuse

Some factors can increase an elder’s risk of abuse, including age and gender. The older the elder, especially above the age of eighty years, the greater their risk of becoming a victim of elder abuse. This is why it’s so important to choose the right person to take care of your loved one when you cannot. Finding someone you can trust as a caregiver is key to reducing that risk, but it’s also crucial that you be on the lookout for signs of abuse. #StopElderAbuse #ElderAbuse #ElderNeglect #ProtectOurElders #NoElderAbuse #NursingHome #Caregiver
