Elder abuse often goes unreported. It is estimated that hundreds of thousands of senior citizens are abused each and every year, with only 2-10% of incidents ever reported. Should you be suspicious of ongoing elder abuse, there are many resources that can help you make sure your elderly loved ones are being treated with the utmost care and respect.
