Elder abuse and neglect: what physicians can and should do.

Mahnaz Ahmad1, Mark S Lachs.   

Abstract

Although reports of elder abuse to official agencies have been steadily increasing, physicians report only 2% of reported cases. Multiple barriers to reporting exist. This article reviews the terminology, epidemiology, and clinical signs associated with elder abuse in the community and offers practical strategies for intervention.
