46. I hope I am wrong, but I fear ombudsman is just buddy-buddy with the nursing homes.

I have no basis for this fear, as I haven't called the ombudsman, but gee they deal with these same homes month after month, year after year, and they know the administrators, etc. It makes sense they would develop relationships whereas people like my poor mother come and go.

Kind of like Diebold, ES&S, etc. being chummy with election directors and cold as ice to the citizens who vote and pay the bills.

Again I hope I am wrong about this -- I tried to contact the ombudsman once, months ago, and she was on vacation and never called me back. I took this as a bad sign. Sorry.
