Elder Sexual Abuse in Britian:

Abstract

Ninety cases of suspected elder sexual abuse were identified by professionals working with vulnerable elderly people in Britain. A female to male victim ratio of 6:1 was indicated and some 85% of all victims were aged 75 years and over. In all but two cases, the abuser was male. Almost 90% of the victims were dependent on their abusers for care. Preliminary findings of the study are presented and the implications of the research are considered.
