Drug addiction is considered a chronic disease symptomized by a compulsive need to use drugs despite the full knowledge of its harmful consequences.

Abuse of Aging Caregivers Aims of the Concept The abuse of the elderly by caregivers has been largely discussed, but rarely is the abuse of caregivers by the elderly. Abuse of the caregivers by the people they care for is not spoken about because it is thought that they have express authority over them. However, it is not the case (Melchiorre et al., 2017). Caregivers have been identified for a long time to be victims of poor treatment by the elderly and also by their family members. More so, abuse directed against caregivers increases with their age (Isham, Hewison & Bradbury-Jones, 2019). Abuse of elderly caregivers, therefore, becomes an issue that is worth discussion.

To determine whether abuse of caregivers affects their delivery of services to the elderly people (Hoffman, 2016). This dimensional need would establish whether older caregivers deliver to…

Child abuse has been a social challenge over the years, and a social worker should make use of this principle to care for individuals in a respective manner regardless of cultural and ethnic diversity as well as individual differences (Kornin, 2017). The first thing to do as a social worker is to read more about other people’s cultures and its element.

Whereas the culture may allow the child to cry, and he/she stops himself while others do not. Therefore, before defining an incident as an abuse, the social workers should assess the culture of the particular group and ascertain if the group identify the issue as child abuse and work from that…
