28: What the Heck is an Ombudsman

May 27, 2021

Under the Older Americans Act, all states must have a nursing home ombudsman program. This ensures that nursing home residents across America can get help if they need it. By collecting data on nursing home neglect and abuse, complaints can be organized based on frequency and severity. They’ll also highlight aspects of care that need improvement.

In today’s episode, Nicola speaks about:

• What is the ombudsman program
• The importance of ombudsmen in any nursing home facility
• Why you should conduct a thorough investigation before signing up your aging parents at a nursing home facility.

...and so much more!
