Caregiving

Every year on June 15th, communities around the globe come together to observe World Elder Abuse Awareness Day (WEAAD). This day is dedicated to raising awareness about the abuse, neglect, and exploitation that many older adults face. Elder abuse is a significant issue that affects millions of older individuals worldwide, and WEAAD serves as a crucial reminder of the importance of protecting and respecting our elders.
