SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This practical training manual is written for home care, residential and day care staff, who need to be able to recognize elder abuse, but may not be trained to do so. Its large format, range of exercises and photocopiable worksheets make it a valuable source of training material not only for training teams, but also for managers who train staff and teams on site. Each chapter contains exercises, a reading list and a simple discussion of the theory behind each of the key areas covered by the manual
