World Elder Abuse Day

OPP are asking residents to familiarize themselves with the signs of abuse and neglect as part of World Elder Abuse Day. Police say by learning to identify the warning signs, people can detect and report incidents of abuse and neglect among aging members of our community. Seniors may have unexplainable physical injuries, changes in personality, be socially withdrawn and have attitude or abnormal behaviour. They may also show signs of poor hygiene, lack of nutrition or necessities and suddenly become unable to meet financial obligations. Financial abuse is the most common form of elder abuse as individuals attempt to cash in financially on a population they see as vulnerable?. OPP say elder abuse will not be tolerated and should be reported.
