Description

Karl Pillemer and co-authors wrote a paper from 2023 on how to study elder abuse with the help of care homes. To learn about abuse in nursing homes and assisted living sites, researchers need those sites to take part. Yet the two sides often work in unlike ways, and care homes fear bad press from such studies. Staff time is also tight, which limits their role.

The team draws on a program that aimed to cut fights between residents in thirty care sites. More than two thousand residents took part in that program. They list seven steps that won the sites' trust and time. The steps include early talks with top staff and clear pledges to keep names secret. They also include a named champion inside each site, pay for staff time, and room to fit the program to local work.
