Financial Abuse of Older Adults: Recognize, Review and Respond
About the Course
Everyone knows elder financial abuse is a problem, but few understand what to do about it. This award-winning 35-minute course Financial Abuse of Older Adults: Recognize, Review and Respond is built around 3 short videos that illustrate how older adults are vulnerable to those they rely on the most – and what financial institutions can do about it.
The three short stories (about four minutes each) are currently available as a video resource for use in the USA or Canada to use as a supplement to your current training– for example by showing the videos as part of a lunch-and-learn session or as an online resource for staff.
