Here’s what’s coming up for the rest of this month of elder abuse and fraud coverage:

First of all, do NOT miss Kelly Riddle’s thorough introduction to the topic of elder abuse (adapted from his book, Nursing Home Abuse Investigations), which we posted in Pursuit last week:

Elder Abuse in Long-Term Care Facilities: An Introduction

Coming up this week and next:

  1. An interview with Kim Ridding, president of Legwork Investigations and of the Indiana Association of Professional Investigators. She’ll share a story about a specific kind of theft that’s common at care facilities;
  2. An interview with trust officer Amy Peterson, who explains how to protect seniors from scams and fraud;
  3. Next Thursday’s PI Education monthly webinar, starring Kelly Riddle, who’ll share what he’s learned from decades of investigating elder abuse claims.
