Reporting a problem
Wherever your loved one is placed, the same three channels handle nursing home concerns.
California Department of Public Health (CDPH). CDPH licenses and inspects skilled nursing facilities and investigates complaints. File online through Cal Health Find. A serious complaint can trigger an on-site inspection.
Long-Term Care Ombudsman. A free advocate who will visit your loved one, look into your concerns, and press the facility on their behalf. The statewide Long-Term Care Ombudsman CRISISline is (800) 231-4024.

If your loved one was harmed
Where a facility is does not decide where a claim can be brought. If your loved one was harmed in a nursing home, talk to our Sierra County nursing home abuse lawyers. Under California's Elder Abuse Act (Welfare and Institutions Code sections 15600 to 15675), a family that proves, by clear and convincing evidence, that neglect was committed with recklessness, oppression, fraud or malice can recover remedies beyond an ordinary injury claim, including attorney's fees (section 15657).
