Janice Thomas, Coalition for Justice for Elder and Disabled Adults joins Debbie Monterrey to talk about elder abuse.

World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, is recognized on June 15th annually, the Ministry of Health, Wellness and Elderly Affairs uses this opportunity to highlight the challenges faced by older persons around us, and to renew our commitment to ensuring accessible health care, and support for their well-being. This day of recognition was launched by the International Network for the Prevention of Elder Abuse and the World Health Organization at the United Nations, in 2006 and remains an important observance to remind us that we need to protect our older generations from abuse and neglect. World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, supports the United Nations International Plan of Action that acknowledges the significance of elder abuse as a public health and human rights issue. By shining a spotlight on this form of abuse, we are encouraged as a nation to take action and support justice for older persons. As we make the commitment to take responsibility to prevent the abuse of older persons, we can lend a hand to those in need, be their voice when they need it, and take actions to protect them.

Our show opens with something that I've been ruminating over since the murder of those two young people in the streets of D.C. If we have had a few generations indoctrinated under the oppressor v. oppressed model, that worldview does not allow for forgiveness. If you are an oppressor, you are always guilty of being that. But, since the Left almost always projects their own sins on their political enemies, is that why we are seeing all this anti-Semitism, which has now escalated to murder? We then examine the violent and emotional Left and wonder if anyone from that side of the aisle will start to speak out and address it? The Auto-Pen controversy is now being thought of in terms of elder abuse of Joe Biden. But, rest assured, Jake Tapper confirms what I told you about the motivations behind the “tell-all” book. We are seeing a positive step forward when it comes to health and how the SNAP program will work. Ultimately, the cost of buying better food is far less than the cost of healthcare issue resulting from eating terrible food.

They emphasize the importance of awareness, community support, and the need for seniors to advocate for themselves against potential exploitation.takeaways Elder abuse can manifest in various forms, including physical, emotional, and financial.

Seniors deserve to live without financial worry and should advocate for their own well-being. Community support is essential in preventing elder abuse and ensuring safety. Seniors should trust their instincts and not feel pressured to comply with requests for money. Awareness and education are crucial in combating elder abuse.

The silent epidemic of elder abuse affects countless seniors, yet many families don't recognize the warning signs until significant harm has occurred. Attorneys Brendan Begley and Jordan McIntyre tackle this critical issue head-on, revealing how cognitive decline creates vulnerability and opens the door to exploitation.Financial exploitation stands out as the fastest-growing form of elder abuse, with seniors losing billions annually to scammers, unethical caregivers, and even family members. The attorneys explain the sobering reality that willingness doesn't equal consent when cognitive impairment is involved—seniors may sign over deeds or write checks without truly understanding the consequences or remembering previous transactions.What makes this issue particularly heartbreaking are the risk factors that compound vulnerability. Beyond cognitive decline, social isolation emerges as perhaps the most insidious threat, where seniors knowingly accept exploitation simply to maintain human connection. The podcast reveals surprising forms of abuse that often go unrecognized, including misuse of the very legal systems designed to protect vulnerable adults, like unnecessary guardianship proceedings when less restrictive alternatives exist.The attorneys offer practical solutions for both prevention and remedy. While Adult Protective Services and litigation can address exploitation after it occurs, establishing a comprehensive estate plan before cognitive issues arise provides the strongest protection. A properly executed power of attorney grants trusted individuals not just decision-making authority but legal standing to intervene if exploitation occurs—a critical distinction many families discover too late.Ready to protect yourself or your loved ones?

In this episode, I speak with Cameron Huddleston, a financial expert specializing in protecting older adults from financial exploitation. Cameron explains the two primary types of financial abuse—scams from strangers and exploitation by people the victim knows—and discusses how quickly financial abuse can happen, particularly in caregiving situations. She offers practical advice for families transitioning a loved one into assisted living, such as removing financial documents, limiting access to money, and automating bill payments to reduce the risk of exploitation. We also talk about how to approach the sensitive topic of financial planning with aging parents, focusing on empowering them to remain in control while setting up safeguards like powers of attorney and estate planning documents. Cameron shares resources available on her website, including an emergency organizer and scam red flag sheet, along with information about her book Mom and Dad, We Need to Talk, which provides more tips on navigating these important conversations and protecting loved ones' finances.

In this episode of This is Getting Old: Moving Towards an Age-Friendly World, financial expert Cameron Huddleston shares essential tips for recognizing and preventing scams targeting older adults. Scammers have become more sophisticated, using fear, urgency, and emotional manipulation to steal personal information, drain bank accounts, and isolate victims. From tech support and romance scams to investment schemes, these fraudsters take advantage of vulnerabilities, often leaving their victims financially and emotionally devastated. To protect yourself, watch out for red flags such as unusual payment requests (gift cards, wire transfers), pressure to act immediately, or isolation tactics. If you suspect a scam, cut off contact with the fraudster, consult someone you trust, and report it to authorities like the Federal Trade Commission or the U.S. Senate Special Committee on Aging's Fraud Hotline. Education and awareness are key to preventing these scams—talking to your loved ones about these tactics can help them stay safe.
