N2  - This descriptive study's purpose was to pilot a questionnaire with sub-scales in a population of 40 family members listed as power of attorney (POA) for residents and 40 employees of a long term care facility in rural southeastern Kansas. The non-random convenience sample was 49 participants resulting in a 61.25% participation rate. The framework for the study was Betty Neuman Systems Model. Neuman's variables are related to the physiological, psychological, socio-cultural, developmental, and spiritual stages of the multidimensional person (Neuman, 1982). The 25 items on the Elder Abuse Questionnaire (EAQ) were derived from these variables.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
