Older patients represent a large bulk of the population arriving in emergency departments （EDs） all over the world.[1] They use hospitals more frequently than younger patients, have more hospital admissions from the ED and more prolonged hospital stays.[2] Elder abuse is defined as a single, or repeated, act which causes harm or distress to an older person and it can occur within any relationship where there is an expectation of trust from the elder person＇s perspective.[3,4] The ED setting is a particularly important environment being the first point of contact with formal services for the abused elderly population.[5] Careful consideration is demanded when older people attend the ED, with particular attention paid to assessment of subjective and objective data in terms of manifestations and potential indicators of abuse.展开更多
