Blog #2

blog #2
 
 
The topic I chose to write about is elder abuse. I chose this because I feel that it is important to realize that this does go on in some places and that it needs to stop. I am researching elder abuse because I want to find out why this happens and how I can help the problem. In order to help readers understand why I’m writing about this problem, I am going to answer all of these questions effectively.
Who does this problem affect?
What is abuse?
What kinds of abuse are there?
How can you prevent abusing/being abused?
What are the warning signs?
How can you go about reporting abuse?
Why does this happen? (people who work, why aren’t the employees screened, etc.)
 
My topic is important because I know that this is a regular thing that happens. Family members don’t always know that their loved one who is an elder is being abused, and this is why it affects the family members as well as the elder being abused.
