THIS article concerns the apprach of elder abuse in Flanders and East-Flanders in particular. Everyone who gets confronted with or who is interested in elder abuse in the home situation in Flanders can contact The Flemisch Reporting Point for Elder Abuse. When an intervention is needed, the Flemish reporting point contacts the Local Supporting point for Elder Abuse. The reporting point in East-Flanders approaches cases of elder abuse through casemanagement. This is concidered a good practice in cases of elder abuse.
