O'Brien, E.Stevens, C.Baldassar, L.2025-12-182025-12-182023https://hdl.handle.net/11541.2/36745Each year, many older Australians experience abuse, neglect or financial exploitation, usually at the hands of their adult children or other close relatives. A recent national prevalence study revealed one in six older Australians living at home experiences elder abuse. This may encompass various forms of abuse, such as emotional, financial, social, physical and sexual abuse, or neglect. Despite elder abuse being such a common problem, older people often don’t get the help they need. With the right responses, we can make it easier for those working with older people, and the wider community, to support them. Our new research reveals the key reasons older people experiencing harm do not receive the support they so desperately need.enCopyright the author.
