Nursing home advocates needed

The Ombudsman Program of Ventura County is looking for volunteers in the west county area to advocate for older, and dependent adults, living in long-term care facilities. Did you know that 60% of all older adult residents in skilled nursing facilities have no family or friends to speak for them? Join the LTC Ombudsman Program and make a difference in the lives of the forgotten, vulnerable older adults in your community. For more information about January training, please call Long Term Care Services of Ventura County, Inc., Ombudsman Program at 656-1986, and/or visit www.ombudsmanventura.org.
