Report an Issue – Institution

Do you live, work, or have a loved one in a facility?

We need to hear from you about how institutions throughout the state (nursing homes, group homes, hospitals, residential schools, and other facilities serving children or adults) are managing the impact of COVID-19:

  • Are staff being careful to wash their hands and use hand sanitizer?  Are they practicing social distancing (6 feet away) when possible?
  • Are they wearing protective gear when caring for someone who is ill?
  • Are there are staffing shortages at the facility?
  • Do you have access to medications, food, and other necessary items?
  • Do you have ways to communicate with friends, family and others, even if in-person visiting is limited?
  • Are you being abused or neglected, including extreme isolation, lack of human contact, and/or over–medicated?

To report issues, use the form below.

To report abuse or neglect of a person with a disability, contact Bureau of Elderly and Adult Services or local law enforcement. To report abuse or neglect of a child, contact Child Protective Services or local law enforcement.
