Abstract

In the report Protecting Our Future it was recommended that, following its establishment, the National Centre for the Protection of Older People should identify ‘current practices in residential care that result in the abuse of older people’ (Working Group on Elder Abuse 2002: 22). This report is part of the process of enacting that recommendation. With the support of the Health Service Executive, the National Centre for the Protection of Older People (NCPOP) undertook a national survey of staff in residential care homes in Ireland.
