SUMMARY:Recognising and Responding to Elder Abuse in Older Adults Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Elder abuse is a serious public health and social issue\, estimated to effect 1 in 6 older adults in Western Australia. It can take many forms\, including financial\, social\, physical\, sexual\, psychological and emotional abuse\, and neglect\, and can occur in a range of different settings. Elder abuse can have ongoing health impacts on an individual\, such as physical injury\, poor mental health and increased risk of premature entry into residential aged care. \nAs with many forms of abuse\, it can be difficult for an individual experiencing elder abuse to speak out. It is vital that health and community professionals working with older adults in WA carry the skills to recognise and respond to elder abuse to ensure the safety of their clients and provide support to make informed decisions about their ongoing safety and wellbeing. \nJoin Injury Matters\, with guest facilitator\, Wendy Bennett\, from Advocare\, for the ‘Recognising and Responding to Elder Abuse in Older Adults’ online workshop\, where we will explore: \n\nElder abuse and its impact on older adults\nHow to recognise and respond to elder abuse\nOptions for clients experiencing elder abuse\nThe Elder Abuse Protocol and 5-step approach for action against elder abuse\nDepartment of Health and WA Country Health Services guidelines\nElder abuse policy and procedure for organisations (established / planned)\nAdvocare and how they can assist you\n\nThis webinar is for anyone working with older adults\, including home care service providers\, carers and support workers\, community workers\, and health and allied health professionals.
