day of the residents at Memory Manner. An Ombudsman

care facilities, mostly just through friendly
visiting!
Do you know someone with
questions about Medicare and its new prescription
drug program? Do you know families with children who
need health insurance? Are you interested in helping
people learn more about health insurance coverage?
