Settlement Guide: Older migrants vulnerable to elder abuse

Australia is ageing and it's our older migrant communities that will age faster than other older people.That's the warning from the Federation of Ethnic Communities Councils of Australia (FECCA).And as we age there's an increasing number of elder abuse cases around the country. The Elder Abuse Prevention Unit estimates elder abuse costs the health system more than $350 million dollars each year. It also says for every call they receive about elder abuse there's four times more causes going unreported.
