What Is Financial Elder Abuse?

Elder abuse comes in many forms. Not only are the elderly at risk of physical and emotional harm, but they are also targets of financial abuse. This is particularly true due to cognitive impairment, poor physical health, functional impairment, and dependency on others of some older adults.

Financial elder abuse is frighteningly common, and the number of elders afflicted by financial abuse is growing. Financial elder abuse, as defined by the CDC, is the “illegal, unauthorized, or improper use of an older individual’s resources by a caregiver or other person in a trusting relationship, for the benefit of someone other than the older individual.”

Financial elder abuse goes far beyond petty theft to include:

  • Forgery
  • Theft of money or possessions
  • Use of coercion or deception to surrender finances or property
  • Improper use of guardianship or power of attorney
