NCALL has a webinar coming up: Health Care Providers’ Role in Identifying and Responding to Older Victims of Abuse. The session will be held 8 December at 11am ET. From the site:

Health care providers are in a unique position to identify and respond to elder abuse. Dr. Veronica LoFaso, a geriatrician at Weill-Cornell Medical College in New York City, will discuss signs of elder abuse and neglect and how health care providers can identify and respond to potential older victims. Dr. LoFaso will also describe how victim service providers and other professionals can engage health care providers to work collaboratively with them. In addition, she will describe the important role health care providers can play on multidisciplinary case coordination teams.
