About
Join the WA State Long Term Care Ombudsman Program (SW Region) and help our vulnerable adult long term care population!
The LTC Ombudsman Program is searching for individuals desiring a very meaningful volunteer opportunity. Ombuds routinely visit long term care homes (skilled nursing, assisted living, and adult family homes); educate residents of their rights; empower residents to take action related to their concerns, and advocate for those unable to speak on their own behalf. We are the low-level problem solvers that make a difference for the long term care residents we assist.
