In the wake of the pandemic, many of our most vulnerable citizens are left behind in the form of increased abuse and neglect. With visitation privileges now limited at nursing facilities across the country, family members of the elderly should remain more vigilant than ever before.

Some factors can increase an elder’s risk of abuse, including age and gender. The older the elder, especially above the age of eighty years, the greater their risk of becoming a victim of elder abuse.

This is why it’s so important to choose the right person to take care of your loved one when you cannot. Finding someone you can trust as a caregiver is key to reducing that risk, but it’s also crucial that you be on the lookout for signs of abuse.
