In this article, we explore professionals' representations of elderly female victims of gender violence. Semi-structured interviews were used to explore seven professionals' work philosophies and intervention methodologies in their work with elderly female victims of violence, their main problems and difficulties, and their perspectives regarding shelters for elderly women. Results show that there are no specific philosophies and methodologies to intervene with these victims. There is a tendency to homogenize all the victims of gender violence, regardless of their age and specific needs. The professionals also tended to trivialize gender violence against elderly female victims, considering that these women tolerate violence.
在本文中，我们探讨了专业人士对老年女性性别暴力受害者的描述。我们采用半结构化访谈来探究七名专业人士在与老年女性暴力受害者工作中的工作理念和干预方法、他们面临的主要问题和困难，以及他们对老年女性庇护所的看法。结果表明，在干预这些受害者方面没有特定的理念和方法。存在一种将所有性别暴力受害者同质化的倾向，而不考虑他们的年龄和特殊需求。专业人士还倾向于淡化针对老年女性受害者的性别暴力，认为这些女性容忍暴力。
