Information and Guidance on Domestic Abuse: Safeguarding Older People in Wales was developed in partnership with the Older People’s Commissioner for Wales. 


The guidance offers practical advice to professionals to ensure that older people who are experiencing or have experienced abuse, have access to the best support and advice available. 


It also aims to raise awareness of the issue and aid understanding of the complexities of working with older people who require care and support as a result of domestic abuse.  


The Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children said:



> “Some older victims experience abuse for twice as long as younger people before seeking help, and this cannot continue. It is not acceptable for older people to suffer alone without the help of exceptional support that can be provided to them by our specialist services.
> 
> 
> “I’m committed to working closely with partners to protect victims of domestic abuse, and I’m pleased this guidance offers practical advice to help professionals to work effectively with older people.
> 
> 
> “Since the Violence against Women, Domestic Abuse and Sexual Violence (Wales) Act came into force, we have built strong foundationsto create a stronger, more resilient sector to support individuals and families who are either at risk, or are struggling with the consequences of abuse, and we will continue to do so.”


Older People’s Commissioner for Wales, Sarah Rochira, said:



> “I am pleased to have worked in collaboration with the Welsh Government to produce this much needed guidance on protecting older people from domestic abuse. 
> 
> 
> “The guidance will assist front\-line professionals working across health, social care and housing to better identify, and respond effectively to, domestic abuse against older people, which affects a significant number of people every year. 
> 
> 
> “The guidance will contribute to a greater understanding of the issues faced by older people when they are the victims of domestic abuse, which is essential to ensure that the right services and support are available to them at such a traumatic time in their lives.”

Cafodd Gwybodaeth a Chanllawiau ar Gam\-drin Domestig: Diogelu Pobl Hŷn yng Nghymru ei ddatblygu mewn partneriaeth â Chomisiynydd Pobl Hŷn Cymru. 

Mae'r canllawiau'n cynnig cyngor ymarferol i weithwyr proffesiynol er mwyn sicrhau bod gan bobl hŷn sy'n profi neu sydd wedi profi cam\-drin yn cael y cymorth a'r cyngor gorau sydd ar gael. 

Nod y canllawiau hefyd yw codi ymwybyddiaeth o'r mater a cheisio datblygu dealltwriaeth o'r cymhlethdodau o weithio gyda phobl hŷn sydd angen gofal a chymorth oherwydd cam\-drin domestig. 

Dywedodd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Gymunedau a Phlant: 


> "Mae rhai dioddefwyr hŷn yn profi cam\-drin am gyfnod sydd ddwywaith yn hirach na phobl ifanc cyn gofyn am help, ac nid yw hyn yn gallu parhau. Nid yw'n dderbyniol bod pobl hŷn yn dioddef ar eu pen eu hunain heb y cymorth eithriadol sy'n gallu cael ei roi iddyn nhw gan ein gwasanaethau arbenigol. 
> 
> "Rwyf wedi ymrwymo i weithio'n agos gyda'n partneriaid i amddiffyn dioddefwyr cam\-drin domestig, ac rwy'n falch bod y canllawiau hyn yn cynnig cyngor ymarferol i helpu gweithwyr proffesiynol i weithio'n effeithiol gyda phobl hŷn. 
> 
> "Ers i Ddeddf Trais yn erbyn Menywod, Cam\-drin Domestig a Thrais Rhywiol (Cymru) ddod i rym, rydyn ni wedi datblygu sylfeini cadarn i greu sector cryfach i gefnogi unigolion a theuluoedd sydd mewn perygl, neu sy'n ei chael yn anodd delio â chanlyniadau cam\-drin, a byddwn ni'n parhau i wneud hynny."

Dywedodd Comisiynydd Pobl Hŷn Cymru, Sarah Rochira:


> "Rwy'n falch o fod wedi gweithio ar y cyd â Llywodraeth Cymru i lunio'r canllawiau mawr eu hangen hyn ar amddiffyn pobl hŷn rhag cam\-drin domestig. 
> 
> "Bydd y canllawiau'n cynorthwyo gweithwyr proffesiynol y rheng\-flaen sy'n gweithio yn y sectorau iechyd, gofal cymdeithasol a thai i adnabod achosion o gam\-drin domestig yn erbyn pobl hŷn yn well, ac ymateb yn effeithiol iddyn nhw gan fod hyn yn effeithio ar nifer sylweddol o bobl bob blwyddyn. 
> 
> "Bydd y canllawiau hyn yn cyfrannu at ddealltwriaeth ehangach o'r materion y mae pobl hŷn yn eu hwynebu wrth ddioddef cam\-drin domestig. Mae hyn yn hanfodol er mwyn sicrhau bod y gwasanaethau a'r cymorth cywir ar gael iddyn nhw yn ystod cyfnod mor drawmatig yn eu bywydau."
