In this episode of HSE Talking Health and Wellbeing, host Eamon Keogh welcomes Tim Hanly, General Manager and Teresa Cronin, Director of Nursing from the HSE Safeguarding Office. Together, they explain what Elder Abuse is. Also outlining how it still remains an issue in society, with isolation and loneliness increasing the risk of abuse for some of our elderly population. They talk through the different type of elder abuse, financial, physical, emotional or due to neglect. The conversation highlights how to recognise the signs of elder abuse and what services are available if someone feels they need to report it.
