Adult Protective Services

APS is responsible for investigating abuse, neglect, and exploitation of adults who are elderly or have disabilities.

Our mission is to protect older adults and persons with disabilities from abuse, neglect and exploitation by investigating and providing or arranging for services as necessary to alleviate or prevent further maltreatment. The major components of APS are In-home Investigations and Services and Facility Investigations.

For further questions or to learn more about adult protective services please call (740) 373-5513 and ask to speak with someone from our Social Services unit.

If you have knowledge of or suspect any form of abuse please email our Social Services Dept or call us at (740) 373-5513 and ask to speak with a Social Services worker.
