Sabby co-authored a book called Elder Abuse:  You Have a Role to Play.

This first-of-its-kind book undertakes the uncomfortable conversation that so many are unwilling to have — that elder abuse is widespread and very real. This book educates the reader to recognize elder abuse in its early stages before the damage is irreparable. The stories shared in this book encompass every level of contact, including doctors, lawyers, financial advisors, family members, social workers, and the frontline workers at both retirement homes and long-term care centres.The book is an easy read for such a difficult subject. It encourages us to have the conversation respectfully and lovingly to ensure that our loved ones know they have a right to live free of abuse. We all have a role to play in addressing Elder Abuse.  Start the conversation now to protect the ones we love.

Review:

"This book builds awareness about the many forms of elder abuse and is an excellent resource. You will read it more than once and you'll want to share it with your friends and family. The authors write for multiple audiences and with different perspectives. Research and first-hand experience anchor this book, and it's filled with concrete suggestions and resources. The storytelling approach is thought-provoking and compels the reader to recognize elder abuse and also to take action to prevent it or to end it. It is both required reading and a good read."
