Elder Abuse: Signs of Emotional Abuse

I’m Scott Kuboff an attorney and patient advocate with the law firm of Ibold & O'Brien. I help my clients recover money for their injuries, harms, and losses caused by the carelessness of others.

Let's talk today about elder abuse and how to identify the signs of elder abuse so we can put an end to it

These are the common signs of emotional abuse:

1)      They're withdrawn, trembling, or anxious

2)      They’re unwilling or hesitant to speak openly

3)      They cannot see visitors without their caregiver being present

4)      They seek their caregiver’s approval before making decisions

5)      They are afraid of retaliation from a caregiver or other person

6)      They are told “you don't know what you're talking about” or “you're losing your mind”

If you have questions about elder abuse or personal injury claims please contact Scott for a no cost, no obligation consultation and case evaluation.
