  • Summary

  • This episode was recorded in June for World Elder Abuse Awareness Day.

    El Paso County Colorado has one of the busiest Adult Protective Services (APS) offices in the State if not the Nation.  With over 3300 cases this past year, it is hard to believe that this number is actually lower than previous years.  APS notes this number is concerning because they believe the number should be higher and that COVID has led to a decline in recognizing and reporting abuse.  This episode explores the work of APS, who are mandatory reporters and how to connect to resources.

    Aging with Altitude is recorded in the Pikes Peak region with a focus on topics of aging interest across the country.  We talk about both the everyday and novel needs and approaches to age with altitude whether you’re in Ft.
