abstract="The diagnosis of elder abuse and neglect is difficult to accomplish, making intervention elusive, primarily because to date there is no set definition of either abuse or neglect. This paper, written primarily from the American viewpoint, addresses definitions; assessment and diagnosis; aetiology of abuse; intervention; prevention and management; ethical and legal considerations; elder abuse and the emergency physician; and future goals.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
