Elder abuse: a scoping review of the hospital social work role
Open accessAbstract
Elder abuse is predicted to rise, and hospital social workers receive professional training to respond. A scoping review was conducted to map the breadth and extent of existing literature on hospital social worker roles in response to elder abuse. Key words searched across six databases and five journals were "social work*," "hospital*," "elder*," "abus*" and their derivatives to identify relevant literature. Included literature was peer reviewed and published since 2000. A manual citation search was also undertaken. Thematic analysis and descriptive reporting followed. A total of 32 publications were included. These were predominantly from the United States, focused on the Emergency Department setting, and were not social work-specific research. Identified themes were 1) social workers as key members in the multidisciplinary team, 2) screening for abuse and responding in the Emergency Department 3) psychosocial assessments are important, and 4) service linkages are a key role of the social worker.

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.
