Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GAO discussed the utilization, barriers, and impact of the Administration on Aging's (AOA) state-administered long-term care ombudsman program to protect the health, safety, welfare, and rights of nursing home residents. GAO noted that: (1) a 1988 study indicated that the total number of nursing home complaints was 102,231 with a median number of 906 complaints per state; (2) since AOA could not gauge the level of utilization of the ombudsman program, the number of complaints varied widely across the states; (3) state-level legal access barriers diminished greatly in all areas except that of facility administrative records, which are an important source of information for ombudsmen conducting complaint investigations; (4) ombudsmen were limited in their ability to investigate complaints on behalf of residents who were not able to consent to an investigation and who did not have a guardian to act on their behalf; (5) the lack of information on the number and location of board and care facilities and the lack of uniformity in defining such facilities limited the ability of ombudsmen to gain access to board and care residents; and (6) AOA did not collect sufficient information to evaluate the impact of the national ombudsman program. GAO believes that AOA needs to: (1) modify its annual data collection instrument to correct its defects and to facilitate measurement of the ombudsman program's utilization rates; and (2) define board and care facilities and how program resources can best be spent to meet the needs of nursing home and board and care residents.

Download or read book The Older Americans Act written by U S Government Accountability Office (G and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information about the Administration on Aging's (AOA) state-administered long-term care ombudsman program, focusing on: (1) program objectives; (2) program impact and measurement of that impact; (3) program utilization by nursing home and board and care facility residents; and (4) difficulties ombudsmen experience in gaining access to nursing home and board and care facility residents. GAO found that: (1) the ombudsman program's objective is to remove impediments to residents' well-being, safety, welfare, and rights; (2) to achieve that objective, the program must increase residents' program awareness, foster open communication and access between residents and ombudsmen, and resolve a high percentage of complaints; (3) AOA is not collecting appropriate data to measure the program's impact and needs to develop a standard definition of what constitutes complaint resolution; (4) the extent to which eligible residents use the program varies across states; and (5) although legal barriers to access to nursing home and board and care facility residents have greatly diminished since 1987, some state laws do not provide ombudsmen with access to such facilities' administrative records. GAO also appended a testimony it presented in June 1991 regarding the utilization and impact of the AOA ombudsman program.
