Today we shared Dewis Choice research in Dublin at the HSE conference "An uncomfortable truth: sexual violence of older people". We highlighted the lived experiences of older survivors and key tips for engagement @choiceolderppl @UkElize #WEAAD24 @AberLawCrim @AberUni
For #WEAAD, our Co-Lead @UkElize presented our research at the @HSELive conference 'Knowledge & Skills Framework for Healthcare Professionals Working with Older People.' Highlighting case studies of older victims, emphasising the need to tackle ageism, myths, assumptions & more.
Eliza Zerk prevents powerful case studies of older victims and survivors . Ageism, myths and assumptions needs to tackled. Professional curiosity is important. Physical signs can mask abuse.
For #WEAAD, our Co-Lead @Rebeccazerk highlighted the exclusion of older people from the public narrative on #DomesticAbuse & the barriers to disclosures. Presented at the @HSELive conference 'Knowledge & Skills Framework for Healthcare Professionals Working with Older People.'
Rebecca Zerk highlights factors such as embarrassment by carers , fear and anxiety of not being believed as barriers to disclosure. #worldelderabuseawareness day @safeguardingire
Join us next month for this free live session! We'll cover the prevalence, unique dynamics, & impact of domestic abuse on older victims, barriers to disclosing abuse, & how professionals can overcome these obstacles to provide best-practice support. ⤵️
🌟 Exclusive Interview 🌟 With Rebecca Zerk and Elize Freeman of @choiceolderppl, Centre for Age, Gender and Social Justice at Aberystwyth University, focusing on violence against women, domestic abuse and sexual violence (VAWDASV) and Supporting Older Survivors.
@legalolder Crikey John!! Hoping you are feeling better soon. Take it easy 😊.
@JoTodd4 Great organisation, such a loss. Feel for the staff and the people they support. Time the "commitment" to end VAWG was enforced with sustainable funding ☹️
📊🌐 Today, we're at #SETDABConference 2023, exploring Diverse Experiences of Domestic Abuse. 🌟Join @RebbecaZerk & @Wydall69 as they spotlight the "lived experiences" of older victims-survivors of #DomesticAbuse #SafeguardingAdultsWeek @AberLawCrim
