What should an interviewer document when interviewing victims who are dependent on others to take care of them?
What will be an ideal response?
Some of the key points that should be documented during an interview follow:
• Does it appear that the elder person is getting all the medical attention he or she needs:
eyeglasses, dental care, or medications?
• When bedsores or incontinence exist, determine if the care being provided is sufficient to
meet the needs of the elder person.
• Are the services provided under contract with specified payments?
• How are the payments made?
• Has the suspect accepted personal gifts from the elder victim, and, if so, what is their
value?
• Is the suspect frustrated or angry due to the responsibilities associated with providing
services to the elder person?
