She identifies the various categories of actions towards seniors that are considered by law to fall under the definition of elder abuse, the warning signs to look for, and the resources available to report any suspicions of elder abuse.
In her What's News segment, Lisa provides updated study information that finds 11 key factors that can contribute to a person's risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and measures one can take to lower their risk.
