No family expects abuse or neglect when they choose a nursing home or assisted living facility. Sadly, the reality is that too many seniors and family members in Toledo and across Lucas County, Ohio have learned the cold, harsh reality of the long-term care industry. Seniors and the disabled are among our most vulnerable citizens. When their voices go unheard, the consequences can be devastating.
