Perquimans County Board of Commissioners a seeking individuals that are interested in serving on their Joint Community Advisory Committee. Community Advisory Committee (CAC) members for Nursing Homes and Adult Care Homes are trained volunteers who operate under the Regional Long- Term Care Ombudsman. Committees are made up of local citizens who have an interest in the long-term care facilities in their communities. CACs were established by the North Carolina State Legislature (G.S. 131D-31 and G.S. 131E-128) to be volunteer, grassroots advocates for resident rights in long-term care facilities and serve Nursing Homes, Adult Care Homes, and Family Care Homes within their county. CAC members are trained by the Regional Ombudsman, designated by the State Ombudsman, and appointed to their Committees by County Commissioners. Advisory Committee Members are required by North Carolina General Statutes to complete 36 hours of initial orientation and training prior to exercising any power under G.S. 131D-32. Appointees must be 18 years or older and must reside in the county that they serve. They cannot have an immediate family member residing in or employed by the type of home that their committee covers, nor can they have a financial interest in a long-term care facility. If you are interested in serving on the Community Advisory Committee in your county, please contact Mary Hunnicutt, Clerk to the Board of Commissioners, at (252) 426-8484 or Melissa Hines, Regional Long- Term Care Ombudsman, at (252) 404-7086.
