Another vote for the Ombudsman. There should be a sign hanging in the lobby or near the activities board; wherever the required postings are. And it is a required posting. They do go into independent living facilities. Ombudsman is a state sponsored third party volunteer advocate and they get results. The facilities do not want to get crosswise with the state. I sympathize with the urgency of this issue and can imagine your frustration.
