Recognizing the Symptoms of Elder Abuse
The seriousness surrounding the problem of elder abuse in our society is often ignored or underrated. People have a tendency to put discussions of elder abuse on the backburner, in favor of more shocking stories that tend to grab the media spotlight.

For every reported instance of abuse, experts estimate that 23 more go unreported.
There are many different types of elder abuse, but they can be broken into three categories:physical, emotional, and sexual abuse.
