What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

The goal of this study is to learn if the intervention, RISE (in partnership with APS), can be implemented in different contexts and if this RISE-APS model works in supporting older adults who are at risk of or experiencing some form of elder abuse or self-neglect. The main aims are to:

1. Adapt and implement the RISE-APS model in four new contexts

2. Evaluate the RISE-APS model implementation and effectiveness in four new locations

Researchers will compare outcomes of participants who receive APS-only services to those receiving the RISE-APS model to see if the RISE-APS model works better in supporting older adults.

Participants will:

Receive services in either group and participate in brief telephone surveys to track their outcomes over time.
