Ventura and Oxnard advocates needed

The Ombudsman Program of Ventura County is looking for volunteers in the Ventura/Oxnard area to advocate for older, and dependent adults, living in long-term care facilities such as skilled nursing and assisted living facilities for the elderly.

Did you know that 60% of all older adult residents in skilled nursing facilities have no family or friends to speak for them? Join this program and make a difference in the lives of the forgotten, vulnerable older adults in the Ventura and Oxnard communities.

For more information about the next training, please call Kathy Terry at Long Term Care Services of Ventura County, Inc., Ombudsman Program at 805-656-1986, and/or visit www.ombudsmanventura.org.
