AnnotationHow Norway is responding to the abuse of older people in institutions is examined. The author uses information and insights drawn from practice, newspaper articles, and investigations carried out in nursing homes in 1994, 1999 and 2000. From these sources, it is apparent that the use of force is widespread, although there is no legal basis for this assertion. (RH).
