Abuse
Footage is provided courtesy of the Alberta Elder Abuse Awareness Council. 2018.
Abuse takes many different forms and often begins slowly and may grow over time. Abusers may ingratiate themselves into the lives of vulnerable adults without the adult even realizing how much control they have given over. When you watch this video, consider the following questions:
-
What types of abuse is happening?
-
What factors contributed to the abuse?
-
What conditions made this adult more vulnerable to abuse?
These issues will be explored in more depth as we continue through this module.
