How to use this handbook

The Service is committed to preventing crime, and this handbook is one example of how we are working in partnership with the community to help seniors feel safe. Please use it as a guide to give you the confidence to live life feeling safe and secure.

One of the reasons older people are less likely to be victims of crime is that they know the importance of taking precautions!

This handbook gathers the most important precautions into different sections for you to refer to, and provides checklists to assess if you need to take further action.

The checklists have been designed so you can tick the items off that have been done, and take note of other items you might want to do sooner or later.

The handbook also lists services available in Queensland to help seniors.
