Template MOU between County APS and Long-Term Care Ombudsman
The laws and regulations guiding both APS and LTC Ombudsman Program allow for flexibility when responding to reports of abuse or neglect. This flexibility provides each county the ability to determine and agree to one way of interpreting regulations for use in their county.
This draft Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) has been developed to provide clarification to APS and the LTCOP related to each agency’s respective role, address jurisdictional issues, and formalize agreed-upon terms at the local level.
