The nurse in the emergency room is assessing a client. The client was brought in by the police for evaluation, after receiving a call from a concerned neighbor. The client reports to the nurse that her son is her caregiver. The client states she doesn’t want to cause trouble for her son, as he works so hard to take care and already thinks she is “a useless old lady who doesn’t do anything right”. Which type of abuse does the nurse suspect based on the client’s statement?
