Elderly abuse often starts small. Like grabbing someone firmly if they don\u2019t listen. Or going shopping with someone else\u2019s household money. The elderly are vulnerable to a wide variety of abuse. Often they find it difficult to talk about a situation of abuse or violence. The abuse is not always intentional. Sometimes, people can no longer handle the care for their loved ones or clients or find themselves in a situation they can\u2019t control or that is too much for them. In such a situation, their behaviour can derail, resulting in abuse. In all cases, it is important to talk about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n<div class=\"eye-block eye_empty_space eye_empty_space--small pt-md-3 pb-md-3 pt-2 pb-2\" ><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-heading\" id=\"forms-of-elderly-abuse\">Forms of elderly abuse<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Elderly abuse occurs in many different ways. Specific forms of elderly abuse are physical abuse, psychological abuse, financial abuse, neglect and sexual abuse.<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n<div class=\"eye-block eye_empty_space eye_empty_space--medium pt-md-4 pb-md-4 pt-3 pb-3\" ><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"ghostkit-col ghostkit-col-lg-12 ghostkit-col-2 is-layout-flow wp-block-ghostkit-grid-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"ghostkit-col-content\"><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"ghostkit-grid ghostkit-grid-gap-md\"><div class=\"ghostkit-grid-inner\">\n<div class=\"ghostkit-col ghostkit-col-lg-12 ghostkit-col-6\"><div class=\"ghostkit-col-content is-layout-flow wp-block-ghostkit-grid-column-is-layout-flow\">\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"eye-block card\">\r\n\r\n    <div class=\"innercard card--white \">\r\n        \n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"financial-abuse\">Financial abuse<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Financial abuse is the inappropriate\/unauthorised use of an elderly person\u2019s assets (money and property). The abusers are often family members, informal carers, professionals or volunteers or \u2018new friends\u2019 from the immediate environment of the elderly person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Elderly people living alone are often particularly vulnerable. All kinds of physical and mental limitations can be a reason why the elderly have someone else look after their financial interests. Financial abuse usually starts small, but can quickly become serious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are different forms of financial abuse, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>taking money, jewellery and goods;<\/li><li>selling properties against one\u2019s own will;<\/li><li>abuse of mandates and\/or unauthorised use of debit cards;<\/li><li>making purchases in the name of the victim;<\/li><li>forced change of will and testament or mortgage withdrawal;<\/li><li>imposing financial limitations and abuse of accounts.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"eye-block card\">\r\n\r\n    <div class=\"innercard card--white \">\r\n        \n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"emotional-psychological-abuse\"><strong>Emotional\/psychological abuse<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Emotional or psychological abuse occurs when family members or guardians torment, bully, harass, threaten (for example with placement in care), call names, intimidate, make false accusations, insult or order the elderly person around. Humiliation, undermining self-confidence and psychological pressure are deemed psychological abuse as well. This leads to feelings of fear, anger, sadness, shyness, confusion or apathy within the elderly person.<\/p>\n\n\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"eye-block card\">\r\n\r\n    <div class=\"innercard card--white \">\r\n        \n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"sexual-abuse\">Sexual abuse<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sexual abuse involves performing sexual acts with or in the presence of the elderly person, against the wishes of the elderly person. Elderly people can be victims of, among other things, exhibitionism, groping and rape.<\/p>\n\n\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"ghostkit-col ghostkit-col-lg-12 ghostkit-col-6\"><div class=\"ghostkit-col-content is-layout-flow wp-block-ghostkit-grid-column-is-layout-flow\">\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"eye-block card\">\r\n\r\n    <div class=\"innercard card--white \">\r\n        \n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"derailed-informal-care\">Derailed informal care<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An informal caregiver is someone who provides long-term, unpaid care for an elderly person who needs help. For example, for an elderly person who is chronically ill or disabled or who can no longer take care of himself or herself. The informal caregiver is not a professional care provider, but provides the care because he has a personal bond with the elderly person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Informal care is deemed derailed when a caregiver, due to overload, ignorance, a lack of knowledge or powerlessness, unintentionally exceeds the boundaries of the caregiver, provides inadequate care, neglects or otherwise inflicts damage. Good care gradually turns into neglect, mistreatment or even abuse.<\/p>\n\n\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"eye-block card\">\r\n\r\n    <div class=\"innercard card--white \">\r\n        \n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"physical-abuse\">Physical abuse<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Physical abuse includes all forms of physical violence, such as hitting, kicking, biting, pinching, scratching, masking the mouth, pulling hair or inflicting burns. Sometimes, the elderly person is tied to a chair or bed. A less visible form of physical abuse is underdosing or overdosing on medication, such as sleeping pills.<\/p>\n\n\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"eye-block card\">\r\n\r\n    <div class=\"innercard card--white \">\r\n        \n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"neglect\">Neglect<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the case of physical neglect, the elderly person does not receive the care and attention he\/she needs and is entitled to given his\/her age and state of health. Examples include insufficient, poor or irregular nutrition, or inadequate personal or household hygiene. Psychological neglect occurs when the elderly person\u2019s spiritual needs are ignored, such as the need for attention, love, emotional care and respect.<\/p>\n\n\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\r\n<div class=\"eye-block eye_empty_space eye_empty_space--small pt-md-3 pb-md-3 pt-2 pb-2\" ><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"ghostkit-divider ghostkit-divider-type-dashed ghostkit-custom-Dzr2A\"><\/div>\n\n\n\r\n<a id=\"what-can-you-do\" class=\"eye-block menu-section\" title=\"what-can-you-do\" data-section-name=\"What can you do?\"><\/a>\r\n\n\n\n<div class=\"ghostkit-grid ghostkit-grid-gap-md\"><div class=\"ghostkit-grid-inner\">\n<div class=\"ghostkit-col ghostkit-col-lg-12 ghostkit-col-8\"><div class=\"ghostkit-col-content is-layout-flow wp-block-ghostkit-grid-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"are-you-affected-by-elderly-abuse-this-is-what-you-can-do\"><meta charset=\"utf-8\">Are you affected by elderly abuse?<br>This is what you can do!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you affected by elderly abuse?

This can either be for yourself or for someone else. You\u2019ll speak to an employee who will listen carefully to what you have to say. This employee answers questions and gives advice. The employee will check with you whether professional help is needed and what help is best. You can remain anonymous if you want or need to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes, it quickly becomes clear what the problems are and what help is needed. In that case, we will refer you to the right service or organise the right help for you. Sometimes, the problem is not clear and therefore that needs to be established first. Safe Home does this together with the people concerned, as much as possible. But if that is not possible, Safe Home can also conduct an investigation without the consent of those involved, should this be necessary for the safety of the elderly person(s) or adults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you in doubt? Call us or chat, anonymously if you want, for advice. Nothing changes if you don\u2019t!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to report elderly abuse, contact Safe Home in that case as well. You can report anonymously without the knowledge of those directly involved, but Safe Home does record your details.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"ghostkit-col ghostkit-col-lg-12 ghostkit-col-6\"><div class=\"ghostkit-col-content is-layout-flow wp-block-ghostkit-grid-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"talk-about-it-with-someone-you-trust\">Talk about it with someone you trust<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Talking to someone close to you is an important first step.

Once you\u2019ve taken that first step, you\u2019ll find that getting things off your chest feels good.

The elderly and\/or informal caregivers often feel powerless, afraid or ashamed. Because they are afraid to talk about it themselves, it is very important that you do something about it when you notice signs of elder abuse.

You often don\u2019t know what is going on exactly. And you don\u2019t want to hurt the other person\u2019s feelings. In addition, the victim or elderly abuser may feel ashamed and wants to keep it secret. It is also possible that your concerns were unjustified. Still, it is better to find out. If the case does involve elderly abuse, you can discuss together how you can do something about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tips on how to start a conversation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Start the conversation by talking about something light and simple, so the elderly will feel at ease.<\/li><li>Ask open questions about things you have noticed. Let the elderly person talk about it him-\/herself. Avoid questions such as \u2018did you find it uncomfortable?\u2019, but rather ask \u2018I noticed \u2026, how did you feel about it?\u2019.<\/li><li>Avoid using the word \u2018abuse\u2019.<\/li><li>Avoid saying bad things about the family of the elderly. It doesn\u2019t help to judge. People are very loyal to their family and friends, and will be inclined to defend them.<\/li><li>Stay calm in case the elderly becomes emotional during the conversation, try to get him or her to \u2018the here and now\u2019 with a practical question about e.g. the weather or coffee.<\/li><li>Don\u2019t make promises you cannot keep. Never promise that you will keep a secret \u2013 to be able to help the elderly, you will probably need help or advice of others.
