Nursing Home Abuse Statistics
- The 1998 National Elder Abuse Incidence Study funded in part by U.S. Administration on Aging found the following: 551,011 persons, aged 60 and over, experienced abuse, neglect, and/or self-neglect in a one-year period.
- Almost four times as many new incidents of abuse, neglect, and/or self-neglect were not reported as those that were reported to and substantiated by adult protective services agencies.
- Persons, aged 80 years and older, suffered abuse and neglect two to three times their proportion of the older population.
