We need to move to a more systemic analysis of elder abuse. To substantially reduce abuse, we need to go the root. America is the world's most extreme of example of a racialized capitalist economy. We don't value elders because they're not "productive." So we don't support family caregivers (no federal paid family leave) and we don't adequately pay professional caregivers who are predominantly persons of color. So, they work long hours, hold down two jobs, burn themselves out, and come to work on edge. And we made the historic mistakes of 1) growing nursing home care and 2) allowing for-profit companies into long term care. Your view?

"A caregiver-friendly healthcare system should fully integrate and respect the caregiver's role as a vital member of the care team. The healthcare system should also recognize, consider, and provide resources and tools to support caregiver needs as part of the overall patient-care picture. There is ultimately no optimum patient health and well-being without caregiver health and well being." Full report at www.caregiversupportservices.com. More resources at www.caregiverswork.com .
