Dear Administrator:

This letter is to inform you of the availability of an Adult Care Facility/Assisted Living Plan of Correction (POC) Checklist to assist ACF/Assisted Living Administrators and/or Operators when developing their POC in response to violations identified on survey.

ACF/Assisted Living Administrators and/or Operators are encouraged to utilize the POC Checklist to ensure that all required information is included and information pertains to the violation cited. As always, information relating to a legal argument should not be included, but instead forwarded to the Department of Health’s Division of Legal Affairs.
