Elder Abuse, Elder Care

As reported recently in the Las Vegas Review-Journal, elder abuse has been slightly on the rise the past few years. But what's the cause of it? How can you look for it? And how can you prevent it?

Also in the segment, Kim Boyer and Mary Shapiro explain the ins-and-outs of elder care, and why end of life planning is so important. Boyer and Shapiro are the co-authors of the Essential Eldercare Handbook for Nevada.
