AnnotationThe US National Elder Abuse Incidence Study (NEAIS) represents a landmark in research on elder abuse. This commentary examines one particular aspect of the report, that is the incidence and significance of self-neglect. The NEAIS study reinforces the need to redress inequalities of access to care and the persistence of poverty among older people. (RH).
