Is someone you know vulnerable to financial abuse?
| Warning
Signs of Vulnerability: |
While no one circumstance or incident may be a true
indicator of financial vulnerability, a combination of such circumstances or increased
frequency of incidents may indicate the need for action. |
| The
Needs Assessment: |
Once a person demonstrates signs of vulnerability and
is perceived to be at risk, it becomes the responsibility of the observer to notify
appropriate individuals, organizations, and/or agencies for professional evaluations of
special needs. |
| What
Should Be Done: |
Should the needs assessment determine that a person
may be vulnerable to financial abuse, and assistance with daily financial matters is
advisable, the choice of the right type of assistance is important. |
