With prevailing aging trends and recent economic downturns, the problem of elder mistreatment is escalating, and it has been suggested that it may even become a perfect storm with budget freezes and cuts to needed programs. The problems are further compounded by the underfunded patchwork of policies and programs to deal with elder mistreatment. Additionally, there has been scant research to address assessment, reporting, and intervention that is state-wide or potentially national in scope. To address these issues, the Elder Abuse Decision Support System (EADSS) was designed and developed in our two previous NIJ-funded grants to facilitate computer-assisted assessment of allegations of abuse, standardize substantiation decision-making, provide user-friendly scoring and reporting, and link care planning to case specifics.
