Abuse of the elderly or anyone is defined as any "harmful act". That is a wide reaching definition as it should be.

The "harm" areas that are investigated when allegations arise are/can be---physical, sexual, psychological/emotional, financial, neglect. There is also an area defined as self-neglect but that would not be considered a criminal act. The topics should "speak for themselves".
