Open your eyes to elder abuse in your community [videorecording - DVD] / Health Service Executive

This DVD has been developed to raise awareness of the issue of elder abuse within community settings. Different types of abuse are portrayed in the DVD in order to help viewers identify when abuse may be occurring. It highlights the stress that carers, especially lone carers, can experience while helping them, and others, to understand the importance of early intervention and assistance. The DVD outlines the practical steps to take if people are concerned about abuse and various supports that may be offered. It also highlights the importance for all of us who have contact with older people to be vigilant and alert for signs of abuse and to take action where abuse is suspected.
