We provide advocacy, information and assistance to older adults living in Union and Snyder counties. We help people access the services they need to remain at home or we assist them with nursing home or assisted living placement and related services.
October is Residents’ Rights Month, an annual event designated by Consumer Voice to honor residents living in all long-term care facilities and those receiving care in their home or community. It is an opportunity to focus on and celebrate the dignity and rights of every individual receiving long-term services and supports.
This year’s Residents’ Rights Month theme – Amplify Our Voices – emphasizes a community of long-term care residents coming together to make their voices heard. Amplifying your voice means being outspoken about your preferences and choices, and sharing who you are and your experiences. Residents’ voices are the most important at the decision-making table – your story deserves to be told!
If you or a loved one have questions or concerns about a long-term care facility, you can reach the Union-Snyder Agency on Aging Ombudsman program at 1-800-533-1050. Our Ombudsman program serves residents in nursing and personal care homes in Union, Snyder, Northumberland, Columbia, Montour and Perry counties.
