- Abstract
Developing scalable elder mistreatment (EM) screening tools for emergency department (ED) use should be a public health priority given EM's high prevalence and its low identification rate within ED settings. The National Collaboratory to Address Elder Mistreatment developed the Elder Mistreatment Screening and Response Tool (EM-SART) to address this challenge. EM-SART integrates components of the ED-specific Senior AID screening tool, while incorporating pre-screen and response components. Information about strengths and limitations of the EM-SART will be collected as this tool is disseminated across selected EDs.
