Adult Protective Services

  • Description:

    Adult Protective Services(APS) is a program for adults 18 or older who may need protective services for a variety of reasons: they have a physical or mental impairment and they are no longer able to protect themselves from neglect, abuse, exploitation, or hazardous situations; or they are unable to provide for their most basic needs of food, clothing, shelter, or medical care; and they have no one willing or able to help them in a responsible manner. Some of the services we provide are investigations of requests for help, home visits to identify needs and arrange for services, medical care or other5 resources in the community, counseling for the person and the family, money management issues, referral to legal services assistance in finding other living arrangements, services to obtain a guardian, and assistance in obtaining other benefits and services.
