Older people who depend on someone for daily living are at risk for abuse. Abuse can be physical, mental, or financial. Signs of elder abuse are:

• The person has lost hair, weight, or is looking untidy.
• They have lost interest in their favorite things.
• Their health is worse (with bed sores, bruises, burns, or scars).
• They have unpaid bills.
• They have not been getting medical care.
• Their home and living conditions are not safe.
• They are acting anxious or showing lack of trust.
