综合过去十年有关长期住宿护理中虐待老年人的文献（即，护理之家和辅助生活）进行了讨论。介绍了滥用的定义，理论和概念模型，滥用的流行率，结果和成本，以及滥用的来源。该综合报告是对2003年有影响力的国家研究理事会报告中文献的更新。我们发现，存在着许多与上一份报告所述相同的问题和关切。许多理论和概念模型需要进一步阐述。对虐待的定义不一致的现象普遍存在。滥用率通常不准确，而且可能报告不足。然而，我们也看到在许多领域取得了进展。这一领域的实证研究有所增加（尽管在辅助生活方面的研究很少）。其他形式和类型的虐待也被认为是重要的，如居民对居民的虐待。这些领域进行了讨论，沿着与潜在的建议，为进一步的研究。
A synthesis of the last decade of literature on elder abuse in residential long-term care (i.e., Nursing Homes and Assisted Living) is discussed. Presented are definitions of abuse, theoretical and conceptual models, prevalence rates of abuse, outcomes and costs, and sources of abuse. The synthesis represents an update to the literature in the influential 2003 National Research Council report. We identify many of the same issues and concerns exist that were surfaced in this prior report. Many theoretical and conceptual models need further elaboration. Conflicting definitions of abuse are pervasive. Rates of abuse are generally inaccurate, and probably under-reported. However, we also identify progress in many areas. An increase in empirical studies that exist in this area (although very few in Assisted Living). Other forms and types of abuse have also been identified as important, such as resident-to-resident abuse. These areas are discussed, along with potential suggestions for additional research.
