Long-term care ombudsmen are advocates for residents of
nursing homes. LTC Ombudsmen provide information about how to find a
facility and what to do to get quality care. Ombudsmen also advocate
on behalf of individuals and groups of residents, provide information
to residents and their families about the long-term care system, and
work to effect systems changes on a local, state and national level.
They provide an on-going presence in long-term care facilities, monitoring
care and conditions and providing a voice for those who are unable to
speak for themselves.
