We are so excited to embark on the first season of our podcast together, but first, we wanted to prop open the door, and give you a chance to get to know some of the folks who make this podcast possible. You will hear from:

• Patricia Hunter, Washington State Long-Term Care Ombuds
• Amy Freeman Attorney for Washington State Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program
• Vicki Elting, Assistant State Long-Term Care Ombuds

And learn about what brought them to the work and what keeps them here. This will also be a chance for you to learn what exactly the Ombudsman Program is, and what our offices do across Washington State.

Thank you so much for your support! This podcast is brought to you by the Washington State Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program, working to ensure the rights, dignity, and well-being of individuals living in long-term care today and tomorrow. The  LTCO program is operated by the Multi-Service Center, a private non-profit located in Federal Way, Washington. To learn more about the Multi-service center visit MSChelps.org.
