Inspector Notes

A complaint investigation was initiated on September 22, 2022 and concluded on November 15, 2022 in response to a complaint received by the department on September 2, 2022 regarding behavioral guidance. The inspector conducted an onsite unannounced inspection on September 22, 2022 from approximately 10:30am until 2:30pm and November 15, 2022 from approximately 1:00pm until 1:45pm. Interviews with staff were completed, observations were made at the center, and documentation was reviewed. The preponderance of evidence gathered during the investigation does support the complaint; therefore, the complaint was determined to be valid.

Please complete the `plan of correction? and `date to be corrected? for each violation cited on the violation notice and return it to me within 5 business days from the date of receipt. You should specify how the deficient practice will be or has been corrected. Your plan of correction should contain: 1) steps to correct the noncompliance with the stand(s), 2) measures to prevent the noncompliance from occurring again; and 3) person(s) responsible for implementing each step and/or monitoring any preventive measure(s).
