Mission Statement
The Office of the State Long-Term Care Ombudsman advocates for excellence in long-term services and supports wherever consumers live.
Description
The Long-term Care Ombudsman advocates for people receiving home care, assisted living and nursing home care. Volunteers can work to resolve complaints about services, help people select a provider and offer information about benefits and consumer rights.

In addition, ombudsman representatives:
- Advocate for person-centered approaches by providers to meet the needs and honor the preferences of residents;
- Link residents with services or agencies;
- Offer resources for selecting long-term care providers; and
- Provide information and assistance with benefits and insurance.
