Elder Abuse (INTERNATIONAL

August 5, 2011


I have been ill and have not posted as much. However, nothing much has changed, since I last look into all the news on Senior Issues.


Elder abuse is just as rampant as ever. Many politicians are still doing the 'keep face' routine of saying "Yes, we have put  XXX dollars into Aged Care" ... Blah..Blah..


Where are the media campaigns to highlight the fact that Elder Abuse; in any form or shape IS NOT ACCEPTABLE !


More importantly, where are the guidelines/actions to investigate into corruptions by crooked lawyers, carers, judges in the booming industry of Conservatorship/Guardianship. 


Of course, the other issue of financial and verbal abuse; plus Neglect of Elderly - perpetrated by family members. Those are never mentioned by governments.
Those cases are in the 'Too Hard Basket'.


Well. May I remind these people, that those abuses do not have any Divides at   
all. Every one of the policy makers and abusers will grow old, one day. Oh, of course, unless they take the easy way out.


I applaud my associates and other advocates for their efforts to highlight the issue of Elder Abuse. We need to empower seniors with information on this subject.
