11 - Abusive Relationship - Hamilton

This CAP identifies people who are in situations of possible abuse or neglect, and to help in the decisions for action. The short-term goal is to determine whether the situation requires immediate action (interventions include social services, medical care, court orders for protection, or relocation of the person), while the medium- to long-term goal is to manage psychological consequences arising from a history of abuse.

See Elder Abuse and Neglect and Helplines for Seniors for support options for older adults who trigger this CAP.
