"Suicide and Elder Abuse" Please respond to the following:
The Center for Disease Control (CDC) identified suicide as a common death investigation within the United States. In some instances, family members attempt to hide the fact that the person took their own life.
Analyze the main reasons why persons would attempt to conceal such an event which could possibly lead them into receiving criminal charges themselves.
Recommend at least one (1) action that the law enforcement could take in order to investigate such a suicide crime.
The National Center on Elder Abuse indicates that seniors are the fastest-growing population in the United States.
It is apparent that as this populace becomes more physically frail, they are seemingly a greater target for the unscrupulous to take advantage.
Discuss the main reasons why abuse of seniors is recognized yet usually goes unreported.
Next, suggest one (1) action that citizens or family members could take to reduce elder abuse. Provide a rationale to support your response.
