Abuse of Older People – Response Toolkit

The Northern Integrated Family Violence Services, the Western Integrated Family Violence Committee and Holstep Health are pleased to launch the Abuse of Older People Response Toolkit.

This practical resource is designed to equip professionals with the knowledge and tools to recognise and respond to the abuse of older people, fostering a community where people of all ages are safe, valued, and respected.

The Abuse of Older People Response Toolkit provides insights into:

  • Recognising different forms of abuse
  • Using a simple, easy-to-remember framework to respond with empathy and prioritise safety
  • Navigating available services for referrals and ongoing support

We invite you to engage with this resource and contact us for feedback or queries at nifvs@whin.org.au.
