“…18 Five types of EA-psychological/ emotional, physical, sexual, financial, and unintentional/ intentional forms of neglect-have been recognized. 19,20 Despite the increasing reports of EA every year 21 and its high prevalence according to many studies from around the world, 22,23 the measurement of its prevalence and research are difficult because EA is a complex and underreported phenomenon because EA is often naturally invisible/hidden mistreatment. 5,[24][25][26][27] This means that EA is unrecognizable even by the victims themselves, 26 and persons whom older people rely on them often perpetrate abuse against vulnerable older people.…”

“…28 In other words, EA is assumed to be a private matter within the family, often leading to underreporting of EA in the community. 20 Therefore, despite its prevalence and severity, EA remains a neglected global public health priority, receiving little attention from national and international governments and organizations [29][30][31][32] and having few resources. 30 A better understanding of the vastness and complexity of this problem is essential for preventing it.…”

Background: Elder abuse (EA) is a serious public health issue recognized as a healthcare priority. Personality traits can influence social behaviors. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of self-reported domestic EA and its relationship with personality traits of older people and their family caregivers. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in 2022. The research population included older people living in the urban community of the Lorestan Province (in the western region of Iran) selected by multistage cluster sampling. In general, 998 older people and their family caregivers were sampled. The data collection tool was a three-part questionnaire: a. demographic characteristics of the older people, b. questionnaire on the incidence of elder abuse, and c. short version of the NEO Five-Factor Inventory-Revised (NEO-FFI-R) for measuring the personality traits of the older people or family caregivers. The statistical software used was Stata 14. Results: The present study reported that the prevalence of EA at home was 37.78%. In the present study, older age, female gender, unmarried/single status, lower education, unemployment, and rented house characteristics were predictors of EA. High agreeableness, high extroversion, and low neuroticism reduce conflict and tension in older people with their relatives and family, which appear to be protective factors against EA. Conclusion: Policymakers and health experts should prepare training and screening programs to consider these factors so that older people exposed to EA can be identified more quickly and early interventions can be used to improve their health status and increase their quality of life.

“…Peningkatan populasi lansia di dunia juga dapat meningkatkan risiko terjadinya elder abuse pada kelompok ini. Elder abuse merupakan masalah global yang sering dipandang remah meskipun dapat mempengaruhi kondisi sosial di masyarakat yang berujung pada gangguan kesehatan serta kerentanan pada kelompok lansia (Pradana, 2022). Kerentanan yang terjadi pada kelompok lansia dapat menyebabkan munculnya gangguan kesehatan ini dipengaruhi oleh beberapa faktor baik dari lingkungan, tingginya paparan yang dialami, beban finansial, serta rendah atau terbatasnya akses ke pelayanan kesehatan yang dapat dicapai.…”

The increase in the elderly population has implications for increasing access to health services by this group. The unpreparedness and misunderstanding of nurses in health services can lead to ineffective nursing care provided to elderly patients. The purpose of implementing basic geriatric nursing training activities is to improve and/or develop the knowledge and skills of nurses within the scope of geriatric nursing. The implementation of Basic Geriatric Nursing Training for nurses was held by the Indonesian Gerontology Nurses Association (PP IPEGERI) from 7 to 11 February 2022. The total training participants were 17 people with education level from diploma III to Masters in nursing. Analysis of the training implementation showed an increase in the results of the participants' pretest-posttest scores by (+) 28.09 points (from a scale of 100 points) with an increase in the average pretest score of 42.35 to 70.44 in the posttest which could be interpreted as a positive benefit from the implementation of basic geriatric nursing training activities carried out by PP IPEGERI for nurses at Pasar Minggu Hospital. The importance of the role of geriatric nurses in health services needs to be supported by an increase in the competence of nurses, one of which can be implemented through the provision of geriatric nursing training carried out by professional organizations. In addition to providing training, support and making policies that are able to support the implementation of effective geriatric nursing services for elderly patients in health services, it is also important to consider. ABSTRAK Peningkatan populasi lansia memiliki implikasi terhadap peningkatan akses terhadap pelayanan kesehatan oleh kelompok ini. Ketidaksiapan dan ketidakpahaman perawat yang berada di pelayanan kesehatan dapat menyebabkan ketidakefektifan asuhan keperawatan yang diberikan kepada pasien lansia. Tujuan pelaksanaan kegiatan pelatihan keperawatan geriatri dasar adalah untuk meningkatkan dan/atau mengembangkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan perawat dalam lingkup keperawatan geriatri. Pelaksanaan kegiatan Pelatihan Keperawatan Geriatri Dasar bagi perawat diadakan oleh Ikatan Perawat Gerontik Indonesia (PP IPEGERI) secara online dari tanggal 7 sampai 11 Februari 2022. Total peserta pelatihan sebanyak 17 orang dengan rentang pendidikan diploma III sampai Magister keperawatan. Analisis pelaksanaan pelatihan menunjukkan adanya peningkatan hasil nilai pretest-posttest peserta sebesar (+)28.09 poin (dari skala poin 100) dengan peningkatan nilai rata-rata pretest sebesar 42.35 menjadi 70.44 di posttest yang dapat diartikan adanya manfaat positif dari pelaksanaan kegiatan pelatihan keperawatan geriatri dasar yang dilaksanakan oleh PP IPEGERI bagi perawat-perawat di RSUD Pasar Minggu. Pentingnya peran perawat geriatri di layanan kesehatan perlu didukung dengan adanya peningkatan kompetensi perawat yang salah satunya dapat dilaksanakan melalui pemberian pelatihan keperawatan geriatri yang dilaksanakan oleh organisasi profesi. Selain pemberian pelatihan, dukungan serta pembuatan kebijakan yang mampu mendukung pelaksanaan pelayanan keperawatan geriatri yang efektif bagi pasien lansia di layanan kesehatan juga penting untuk dipertimbangkan.

The incidence of violence in the elderly is suspected to have a very detrimental effect and can reduce the quality of life of the elderly. Several interventions, such as increasing public awareness and health workers, screening the risk of violence, and strengthening the elderly group to be able to report incidents of violence are known to have a positive effect on reducing cases of violence in the elderly. The activity was carried out in the form of increasing knowledge about violence in the elderly virtually for 464 participants consisting of nursing students and professional nurses from 23 provinces. The results of the Wilcoxon test analysis showed a significance value of 0.000 (< 0.05) which indicated a positive benefit in increasing nurses' knowledge about violence in the elderly. Health workers, especially nurses, are still one of the parties trusted by the elderly group to get rid of all the pain and treatment they experience. The implementation of knowledge improvement programs is known to have a positive effect on nurses' knowledge, some limitations that may be considered by researchers or health workers in designing further activities include: the need for full support from policy makers in implementing the program, the need for a program that is sustainable and not only carried out once in a while, and the need for an active role from health workers to participate in finding out about violence in the elderly through several other ways.
