REQUIREMENTS FOR ALL TYPES
OF FACILITIES AND AGENCIES
§ 6000.331. Repeated noncompliance areas.
(1) Repeated noncompliance areas are determined based on the previous annual, provisional or interim—announced and unannounced—inspections.
(2) Repeated noncompliance areas are determined based on areas of noncompliance observed during the previous initial licensing inspection, and not at the time the previous license was issued.
(3) If there are one, two or three repeated noncompliance areas—regardless of weight—from the previous licensing inspection to the present licensing inspection, a provisional certificate is indicated.
(4) If there are four or more repeated noncompliance areas—regardless of weight—from the previous licensing inspection to the present licensing inspection, no certificate is indicated.
(5) If there are one or more repeated noncompliance areas—regardless of weight—in three or more consecutive annual, provisional or interim licensing inspections, no certificate is indicated.
(6) For community residential agencies, if the same noncompliance area at one facility is repeated at a different facility operated by the same community residential agency during the next inspection, this is considered a repeated noncompliance area.
(7) Physical site noncompliance areas under § § 2380.61 and 6400.76 (relating to telephone; and furniture and equipment) are not considered repeated noncompliance areas if the specific object or condition cited for repair differs from the previous inspection. For example, if a doorknob is missing 1 year and the next year the paint is cracked and peeling, this is not repeated noncompliance. If there is cracked, peeling paint cited in two consecutive inspections—even in different community residential agency facilities—this is repeated noncompliance.
