- Yes, in many cases you can use video evidence of elder abuse. A few years ago there was a 90 year old woman in a nursing home and when her son came to see her she was weeping and said that the nurses were nasty to her. This poor 90 year old suffered from multiple types of Arthritis which is extremely painful. Thankfully her son did not consider his mother's complaints as simple ramblings of an old woman and he hid a video camera in his mothers room. What was on that tape was disgusting and unacceptable. Two middle-aged nurses were bringing the 90 year old woman back to her bed and when they took her off the gurney one nurse held her by her arms; the other by her legs and were swinging her back and forth until they plopped her on the bed and when the old woman cried out in pain they told her to shut up! The son took this to court and won!

False accusation by a caregiver of elderly abuse by another caregiver?
Elderly abuse is on the rise and even in some cases in some nursing homes or in the elderly person's home or if they are staying with one of their children. One must prove that the accused caregiver is actually abusing the elderly person. Some people use video cameras if they have hired a caregiver to come in an look after an elderly parent and in some cases children of the elderly who have a parent in a nursing home and suspected abuse have used video taping to catch the nurses involved actually abusing their parent. This is more common than some people realize, but there are good nursing homes. Taking care of the elderly is a daunting deed and some elderly people (due to no fault of their own) can be become stubborn such as not wanting to eat; not taking their medications; going to therapy; going to the doctors, etc. This can make an untrained caregiver very frustrated and if it continues for a long period of time there is more risk that the untrained caregiver may abuse of an elderly parent. The best one can do is to work on finding a safe place such as a nursing home or a trained caregiver to take over this difficult task of meeting the elderly person's needs. The elderly often have one or more health issues and they can be childlike in manner and many have Alzheimer's and cannot help themselves and are not responsible for what they say or do, so, to abuse the elderly is just as disgusting as abusing a child. If one can not prove the elderly is abused and if it is their parent or a relatives parents or even a friends parent then it is a good idea to discuss with the caregiver of their parent that it is time to get in a professional caregiver or their parent needs to be in a nursing home. If a caregiver is falsely accused then they can set up their own video camera so their duties will be monitored. One has to prove that caregiver has abused that elderly person. It would also be wise to seek legal counsel.
