Maltreatment is a noun.
When maltreatment is suspected, it typically involves reporting the concerns to appropriate authorities, such as child protective services or law enforcement, who will initiate an investigation. If maltreatment is confirmed, a safety plan is developed to protect the victim, which may include removing them from the harmful environment and providing necessary support services. If maltreatment is excluded, the case is closed, but follow-up may occur to ensure the ongoing safety and well-being of the individual involved. Throughout these procedures, maintaining confidentiality and ensuring the rights of all parties is crucial.

Maltreatment refers to the act of mistreating or abusing someone, often resulting in physical, emotional, or psychological harm.
The three levels of prevention of maltreatment are primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention. Primary prevention aims to reduce the incidence of maltreatment by addressing risk factors and promoting healthy environments, such as education and community support. Secondary prevention focuses on early intervention for at-risk individuals or families to prevent the escalation of maltreatment, often through screening and support services. Tertiary prevention involves managing and mitigating the effects of maltreatment after it has occurred, including rehabilitation and support for victims and families.
