AnnotationIn the prevention and treatment of elder abuse, ethical dilemmas are frequently encountered, however, few guidelines exist for professionals or communities to examine and resolve them. This article describes the work of the Community Dialogue Series on Ethics and Elder Abuse in Cleveland, Ohio, which held discussions across professional disciplines, service systems and cultural groups. This resulted in written guidelines for ethical decision-making related to six dilemmas common to practitioners and policy makers concerned about elder abuse. Suggestions on how to replicate such discussions in other areas are included.
