Abuse of older people: issues for lawyers.

Elder Law Review | January 1, 2002| | Copyright

The Aged Rights Advocacy Service http://www.sa.agedrights.asn.au/ is an agency that offers rights focused advocacy assistance to older people where they are living in Commonwealth subsidized aged care facilities, receiving community based services or experiencing (or at risk of experiencing) abuse (1).

The advocacy provided is social rather than legal in nature, and is focused towards supporting older people to uphold their rights, for example to make informed choices. Such an approach is aimed at maximizing the control an older person has over a given situation.
