Abstract

As many as 2 million elderly persons in the United States experience physical, psychologic, or sexual abuse each year. Nationally spouses or intimate partners commit between 13% and 50% of elder abuse.1 Physicians can be instrumental in preventing and intervening in intimate partner violence in their elderly patients.
