Residents give suggestions, voice concerns at assisted-living forum
BOWLING GREEN — After the Ohio Department of Aging asked for input as it creates a navigator for assisted-living facilities, the state was met with heavy criticism and outright discontentment at a public forum. Residents like Susan Sanderson surrounded tables with a few stacked white poster boards and sticky notes to give suggestions about the department’s soon-to-be Ohio Assisted Living Navigator, similar to the Ohio Nursing Home Quality Navigator, at a state-hosted public forum at the Wood County Senior Center on Tuesday. Each table had six to seven people interact with one department representative guiding discussion by asking questions about how each of them recognized their loved one needed care, identifying the type of care they needed, how they searched for information, and their experiences, if any, with an assisted-living facility, which is a facility that serves clients who don’t require 24-hour care. Ms. Sanderson is an ombudsman for Advocates for Basic Legal Equality and her mother has lived in a facility in the past. She sat next to a stack of red sticky notes and discussed ideas with other participants about features that should be included in the new navigator, sticking those suggestions on the board.
