You are a community nurse asked to provide an educational program on elder abuse at a senior center.  What information. Would you consider providing and why?  What community resources (in your own) would you share with the audience?  Are there legal requirements for reporting – describe what they are and who reports.  How would you provide the information in a non-threatening manner that is factual?  How would you provide a confidential environment if a woman approached to ask personal questions?
