It's not even close. I worked with APS for a decade. They're very cautious and measured. Almost even timid. Because taking adults is a massive headache and there isn't a massive infrastructure for it. With kids, they have facilities and families on standby, ready to take kids in.
You're confused about what the problem could be with APS. Most of the complaints are against people holding a similar credential to them, as well as being a mandatory reporter like them. This can be both beneficial, and difficult.
I had a good experience when I was told to call APS. They didn't just call me back with solutions, they gave me a case number, and phone numbers to call other places to give the case number to. Shit got done.
There's an Adult Protective Services too, and I wonder if it's about as bad.
