Supported decision-making to assist older persons experiencing elder abuse: An integrative review
Abstract
Abstract Background Elder abuse is an ongoing issue experienced by older persons in Australia, with instances of neglect, emotional, and physical abuse being reported to the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety. Aim The aim of this integrative review was to explore the evidence on the effectiveness of supported decision-making for applying to advocacy in older people and people experiencing elder abuse. Methods A systematic search was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analyses guidelines, across multiple databases including: MEDLINE, CINAHL, PsycInfo, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Scopus, and Trove. One thousand two hundred-ten articles were screened for relevance using titles and abstracts. Of these, seven met the inclusion criteria. Findings Content analysis informed the development of four themes pertaining to supported decision-making amongst older persons: personal and environmental factors, relationship between decision maker and support person, information and training, and models and frameworks to aid assessment. Discussion Supported decision making presents an important move towards promoting, protecting, and ensuring human rights for people who may have previously been exposed to more paternalistic approaches. Conclusion The review highlighted gaps in the strength of evidence and was therefore not able to offer conclusive advice on of effectiveness of supported decision making in older people experiencing abuse. This review highlights the need for further research to be conducted to identify how best to offer supported decision making to support the autonomy and human rights of the older person.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
