Hoarding

Abstract

Compulsive hoarding behavior, exhibited in late life, can have serious implications. Geriatric care managers and practitioners in Older Adult Protective Services often grapple with issues related to ethics and aging, including client self-determination, that are raised by hoarding actions. Involuntary intervention may be needed to insure that the older person is not in imminent danger. Case examples are used in the article to illustrate the behavior as well as provide outcomes.
