Beckie Grasdorf has been with the Ombudsman Program at Aging Matters for 12 years and is an advocate for residents at Cypress Point. Beckie has always had some involvement with long-term care and serving her community. From delivering meals and flowers, Beckie has always enjoyed visiting with the elderly and helping their families. Beckie states that she wants "to be the best advocate for the elderly that she can be, and to help make the residents stay in long-term care as pleasant as possible." Beckie is always willing to further her education by attending webinars and in-person trainings. She always has an upbeat personality and is a very positive person. During the pandemic, Beckie still tried to stay in contact with the residents at Cypress Point by calling them weekly to catch up on how they were doing. The residents and the Ombudsman Program are very fortunate to have Beckie for a volunteer and we appreciate all she does for the Ombudsman Program!
