Mission Statement
"Ensuring the rights, dignity, and well-being of individuals living in long-term care today and tomorrow."
Description
The Lewis, Mason, Thurston Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program is seeking compassionate individuals to visit and provide assistance to residents living in licensed long-term care facilities.
A visiting volunteer Ombudsman educates residents about their rights, empowers residents to seek resolution regarding concerns about care or abuse, and problem-solves for those unable to take action. We desire reasonable accommodations for a resident's care and quality of life.
Your presence can make a difference in the lives of these remarkable people in long term care.
If you have a few hours a week to spare and a desire to make a difference, then our program is for you!
We offer a flexible schedule, mileage reimbursement, appreciation events, and a great team atmosphere.
Contact us for our next in-person, 36-hour certification training.
Please give us a call for further information.
