As the number of older adults increases, the incidence of financial exploitation is also expected to rise. This prevalent older adult maltreatment often goes undetected and unreported and may result in poor physiologic and/or psychological health outcomes that are not perceived as abuse-related by healthcare providers. This article focuses on financial exploitation of older adults as a health care problem, as it often occurs when vulnerable older adults are receiving help and/or health care services from trusted caregivers.
随着老年人口的增加，金融剥削的发生率也预计会上升。这种普遍存在的老年虐待往往未被发现和报告，并且可能导致较差的生理和/或心理健康结果，而这些结果并未被医疗保健提供者视为与虐待有关。本文侧重于将老年人的金融剥削视为一个医疗保健问题，因为当脆弱的老年人从可信赖的护理人员那里获得帮助和/或医疗保健服务时，这种情况经常发生。
