Elder abuse is often perpetrated by a family member. As a family caregiver, it is important to recognize if you are experiencing low self-esteem, feeling burnt out, isolated or hopeless, or if you have a history of domestic violence. Stress is a normal part of caregiving, and it is important to find efficient ways to cope with it, such as taking care of yourself. Identifying and preventing possible abusive behavior is important, and you can receive assistance through family members, friends, and respite services.
