Description
Summary:Abstract Aim To review the literature of existing survey instruments used to measure the occurrence of staff‐to‐resident elder abuse in residential care settings. Methods A comprehensive literature search during May 2017 produced 2,037 records. Two authors independently reviewed these records for inclusion, where a total of 17 studies met eligibility criteria. Descriptive information of all identified survey instruments is provided. Results This literature review reveals a diversity of survey instruments used to measure staff‐to‐resident abuse in residential care settings. The survey instruments varied greatly, where most instruments were self‐developed by the authors and provided none or limited information on psychometric properties. Most studies were conducted in high‐income countries and many of them in the United States.
