Welcome to the Ventura County Ombudsman Program

Residents in long-term care facilities are among the most frail and vulnerable in Ventura County. Because many cannot represent themselves, they need assistance to improve their quality of life and care. The Ventura County Ombudsman Program advocates for the highest quality of life and care possible for all our disabled and elderly living in long term care facilities.

Ways to Get involved

Long Term Care Services Ombudsman Program serves a segment of the population that would otherwise have no means of representation. In the absence of the Ombudsman it is feared that most elder abuses and complaints in long-term care facilities would go unnoticed and unremedied while levels of care and the quality of health and life for the frail, elderly residents would deteriorate.
