NORRISTOWNÂ â A proposal to outsource positions advocating for some of the areaâs most vulnerable residents was met with opposition during the April 1 Montgomery County Board of Commissioners meeting.
âThese ombudsmen can navigate any critical issues that we are about to witness. For years they have built good relationships with long-term care facility staff and residents living in long-term care facilities. This is not the time to disrupt this important work,â said volunteer ombudsman Lydia Krezmininski.
âI agree itâs not the time, if any time, to make a change like this,â said Montgomery Township resident Carolyn Michener. âOur group of ombudsmen are so experienced and have ties through the community and I d hate to see that change.â
