Success Stories

During a visit to a residential care facility for the elderly, an Ombudsman noticed that one of the residents required a complex medical device.  According to care facility regulations, the care facility staff must receive training to properly use the medical device to protect the health of the resident.  The facility staff had not been trained, so the Ombudsman worked with the licensing agency to ensure that the training was received quickly.

Jennifer, a 73 year old female who has resided in a residential care facility for the elderly since 1999, used all of her savings to pay for the care facility.  She contacted our office for help to avoid being evicted to a nursing home.  We were able to help Jennifer qualify for state and federal programs that helped to pay for her care.  In addition, we provided the care facility with the licensing regulations that stopped them from evicting her.
