Abstract:
This article presents four "best practice models" that address some common problems faced by community agencies working with elder abuse cases: a multidisciplinary case consultation team; a senior advocate volunteer program; a victim support group; and a master's of social work degree specialization in adult protective services. Their relatively low cost, flexibility, and level of success make them worthy of replication.
