Pennsylvania House on Aging Conducts Hearing on Elder Abuse Issues

The House Aging & Older Adult Services Committee conducted another in a series of public hearings on the issue of elder abuse and possible changes in the Older Adult Protective Services Act and other statutes to better protect Pennsylvania’s growing senior population. Today’s hearing emphasized the perspective of law enforcement and others involved in elder law. Testimony was presented by a panel that included representatives from the Medicaid Control Section and the Elder Abuse Unit within the Office of the Attorney General; Montour County District Attorney Rebecca Warren; and the Pennsylvania Association of Area Agencies on Aging. Testimony deal primarily with financial exploitation and fraud, neglect, and thefts of drugs from older adults. Check the Capitol Toolbox later today for the full story.
