In light of World Elder Abuse Day here’s another great clinical resource. This one is a brief (less than 10 minute) slide presentation (narrated), Red Flags of Elder Abuse: History and Interview by Dr. Laura Mosqueda from the National Center on Elder Abuse at UC Irvine. Note that you must register with QuantiaMD to access it (free); the presentation has interactive elements. What a great inservice tool this could be for a staff meeting–watch the video as a team and follow-up with a discussion about how your own practice could be strengthened or refined in regards to care of the older adult.
