Abuse reporting and care service connection

If abuse or neglect is suspected, report to the Elder Protection Agency (1577-1389). Anonymous reporting is available, and neighbors or building managers can report — not just family.

If it is not abuse but isolation is concerning, the Health and Welfare Call Center (129) can connect to care services such as regular visits, welfare calls, and meal delivery.
