Across Africa, the elderly have traditionally been cared for by their families. Now, with life expectancy increasing by ten years in the last two decades, many Africans are turning to care homes for help. But are elderly relatives getting the care they need?

Undercover reporters gathered evidence of mistreatment and neglect of vulnerable residents at an elderly care home near Nairobi, Kenya’s capital. Secret filming shows staff members physically mistreating residents and dumping unplated food on tables, leaving struggling residents to feed themselves. Medical conditions were also left untreated.

Africa Eye reporter Njeri Mwangi investigates the dark side of elderly care in Kenya.
