Choosing a long-term care facility isn’t where your family’s involvement ends. Regular visits, phone calls, and communication with facility staff can help families stay informed about a loved one’s care and recognize when something may not be right. Building those relationships can give you a clearer picture of what’s happening even when you can’t be there every day.
On this week’s Joe Knows Better podcast, BBB's Joe Ducey and Michelle Marin sit down with Lisa Pollock, State Long-Term Care Ombudsman, to discuss why staying connected, asking questions, and speaking up about concerns are important parts of advocating for loved ones in long-term care.
