Abuse and Harm in Elderly Care_2

INTRODUCTIONThe present report is based upon a given case script to define an essential requisition ofsafeguarding into the health and social care (HSC) sector. This is fundamentally depicting aboutsome eradicable clauses of individuals into such vital field of HSC. It is where the affiliatedbodies of HSC are reputed to engage into some beneficiary activities of servicing the users ratherthan exploiting any sort of trauma to them.Q1 Incidents causing particular individuals and groups vulnerable to abuse and harmsAbuse, harm are danger directly reflect to certain unwanted and atrocious resultants ofviolence and cruelty. This is where the person is mainly treated into an indecent manner by somepeople suffering from a distressed state of mind. It could however exists with many relatedconclusions into which the defendant party may be dealing with a troubled event of their mindsor some other related trauma of financial loss, etc. However, abuse and harm are considered tobe with a slightly distinguished concept into which an abuse mainly refers to numerous relatedcogitations of exploiting the plaintiff with a physical or mental harm in the form of assault by aviolated act (Rigby and et.al., 2011). Harm on another hand is somehow reflected to cause aphysical trauma to an individual in the form of injuries, etc. Distress, pain and anguish areapparently considered to be some vital resultants of such activities. However, it is vitallyimportant for the sufferers to raise their voice against such digressive acts rather than silentlydealing with its grievous consequences. It is mostly due to their quiet approach of notcomplaining about such incidents that in turn results into these severe mishaps.The given script is in regard to exemplify such abusive case of a patient named Lynettewho was suffering from the disease of neuro-degenerative. As a result to which, her familycontacted an HSC and appointed a care taker at their home to constantly provide healthassistance to the diligent. This was mainly due to some factual resultants of this particulardisease for which Mrs Lynette Nardone was unable to move at her own and thus became housebound (Karanikolos and et.al., 2013). However, the care taker was suspected by Mrs Nardonewhere she complained her family members about financial abuse by their appointed care taker.This is due to a constant departure of money from her handbag where she suspected the careprovider named Nadia. On reporting the susceptibility, Mrs Nardone and her family decided toinstall camera at their rooms by together complaining the concerned authorities of Nadia about it.
