AnnotationThis article discusses the application of the Culturagram, a screening instrument designed to assist practitioners to work more effectively in the assessment and detection of family abuse among older immigrants in the United States (US). Case studies of selected immigrant groups are presented to illustrate how the Culturagram can be used to promote more culturally sensitive practice with immigrant families where elder abuse may be a factor. Assessment, detection, and intervention strategies specific to selected immigrant groups are included in the discussion. (AKM).
