Clifton specifically

Questions families ask

Does the ombudsman need my parent's consent before getting involved?

Yes. The ombudsman acts only with the consent of the resident, or their legal representative if the resident lacks capacity to consent. This surprises many adult children, particularly when a parent with intact decision-making capacity does not want a complaint pursued that the family feels strongly about.

What's the practical difference between calling the ombudsman and calling NYSDOH's complaint line?

The ombudsman advocates for an individual resident and can help resolve a dispute or attend a care conference, but cannot license, inspect, or fine a facility. NYSDOH's Metropolitan Area Regional Office ((212) 417-5990 for Adult Care Facilities, (212) 417-4999 for nursing homes) investigates regulatory complaints and can take enforcement action.

Is contacting the ombudsman free, and will it cost my family anything?

Yes, the Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program is entirely free and independent -- there is no cost to a Staten Island family for contacting CIDNY's program or the statewide LTCOP hotline, and using the service does not create any billing relationship or fee.
