Establishing a research network for Adult Protective Service (APS) workers linked to academia is feasible. However, implementing ideal services faces barriers like funding and cooperation.

Area of Science:

  • Social Work Research
  • Public Health Practice
  • Gerontology

Background:

  • Adult Protective Service (APS) networks are crucial for elder abuse prevention.
  • Linking practice-based networks with academic institutions can enhance research capacity.
  • The feasibility of such a linkage for APS workers was previously unexplored.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the feasibility of connecting an APS practice-based research network with an academic institution.
  • To identify challenges and opportunities in establishing and maintaining this interdisciplinary collaboration.

Main Methods:

  • A qualitative research approach was employed.
  • An e-mailed single case study methodology was used.
  • The study targeted 356 APS network members with e-mail access, achieving a 31% response rate.

Main Results:

  • APS workers proposed 73 ideal and actual services for abuse victims.
  • Financial constraints, victim/family cooperation, and resource availability were primary implementation barriers.
  • Half of the respondents could not provide the ideal services suggested.

Conclusions:

  • Establishing a practice-based research network for APS workers connected to an academic institution is realistic and feasible.
  • Interdisciplinary collaboration is key to overcoming identified barriers in adult protective services.
  • Future research should address resource allocation and cooperation strategies.
