Spotlight on elder abuse

On this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, Tom Lodewyke is joined by Seniors Rights Service CEO Russell Westacott. Russell explores the legal issues that the organisation assists elderly people with, including financial abuse, living arrangements and abuse in aged care facilities. He also discusses why elder abuse can often go undetected, particularly within families, and delves into the Australian Law Reform Commission's recent inquiry into the issue. www.lawyersweekly.com.au
