In a community hospital, an elderly man approaches you and tells you that his neighbour has been stealing his money, saying “sometimes I give him money to buy groceries but he didn’t buy groceries and he kept the money” what is your best course of action for this?

  • Raise a safeguarding alert

  • Just listen but don’t do anything

  • Ignore the old man, he is just having delusions

  • Refer the old man to the community clergy who is giving him spiritual support
