Tell us a little about yourself or your loved one: | |
Q1: What was your situation when you or your loved one first started experiencing elder abuse, neglect, and/or fraud? (What was your/their living situation like, were you/they struggling with any health issues, etc.?) | My name is Samantha and I have been working in the senior living industry for several years. I recently came across a distressing situation involving an elderly lady in need of assistance, and I am reaching out to you in the hope that you or your organization may be able to help. |
Q2: What would you like to share about your story? | That seniors are being taken advantage of - Senior living is SO expensive and when someone plans to sell their house to pay for it and you find this out - it is sentencing her to death in her house. She will certainly fall and not be able to get help. |
Q3: What do you wish people knew about elder abuse, neglect, and fraud? | That is happens all the time. It is so easy to scam people and the interest rate of 61.75% should be illegal. |
Q4: What are your hopes for the future? | That I can save this lady and help her get into an assisted living community. |
