Elder Abuse & Guardianship Exhibit Checklist FAQ
What documents do I need for an elder abuse report?
At minimum, you need medical records showing injuries or neglect, photographs with dates, and any financial records showing exploitation. If the elder is in a facility, request incident reports and the most recent state inspection survey. APS investigators move faster when the evidence is already organized.
How do I get nursing home inspection reports?
Every state publishes nursing home survey results through its health department website. You can also search the federal CMS Care Compare database at medicare.gov. These reports document deficiencies, complaints, and plans of correction — they are public records.
What financial records matter most in exploitation cases?
Bank statements are the backbone. Request 12-24 months of checking, savings, and credit card statements. Look for unusual withdrawals, new authorized signers, checks to unfamiliar people, and transfers that coincide with when the suspected exploiter gained access. Property deed changes and beneficiary modifications are also common red flags.
