The Healthcare Professional's Defense Against APS Complaints & Substantiations
You do not have to face the State of West Virginia alone if you have been accused by Adult Protective Services "APS" of abuse, neglect, or financial exploitation. You need someone in your corner to defend you from allegations. You need someone with experience forcing APS to prove its complaint. You need an experienced lawyer unafraid to challenge APS Substantiations.
If you, the healthcare professional, have been declared a perpetrator by APS for allegedly abusing, neglecting, or taking financial advantage of a vulnerable adult, there is something you can do, but you MUST act now!
You only have 60 days from the notice of substantiation to challenge an APS finding and to demand a hearing. The only way to keep APS from placing your name on the state's abuse and neglect registry is to overcome the substantiated finding in an administrative hearing. Move quickly, as your professional reputation and ability to perform healthcare services is at stake.
