## Text

Section 260
Section 260.1500  Notice of
Violation and Plan of Correction
a)         Upon determination that the licensee or applicant is in
violation of the Act or this Part, the Department shall issue a written Notice
of Violation and request a plan of correction.  The notice shall specify the
violations, and shall instruct the licensee or applicant to submit a plan of
correction to the Department within 10 days after receipt of the Notice.
b)         Within the ten-day period, a licensee or applicant may request
additional time for submission of the plan of correction.  The Department may
extend the period for submission of the plan of correction for an additional 30
days, when the Department finds that corrective action by a facility to abate
or eliminate the violation will require substantial capital improvement.  The
Department will consider the extent and complexity of necessary physical plant
repairs and improvements and any impact on the health, safety, or welfare of
the patients of the facility in determining whether to grant a requested
extension.
c)         Each plan of correction shall be based on an assessment by the
facility of the conditions or occurrences that are the basis of the violation
and an evaluation of the practices, policies, and procedures which have caused
or contributed to the conditions or occurrences.  Evidence of such assessment
and evaluation shall be maintained by the facility.  Each plan of correction
shall include:
1)         A description of the specific corrective action the facility
is taking, or plans to take, to abate, eliminate, or correct the violation
cited in the Notice.
2)         A description of the steps that will be taken to avoid future
occurrences of the same and similar violations.
3)         A specific date by which the corrective action will be
completed.
d)         Submission of a plan of correction shall not be considered an
admission by the facility that the violation has occurred
to abate, eliminate, or correct the violation
cited in the Notice.
2)         A description of the steps that will be taken to avoid future
occurrences of the same and similar violations.
3)         A specific date by which the corrective action will be
completed.
d)         Submission of a plan of correction shall not be considered an
admission by the facility that the violation has occurred.
e)         The Department shall review each plan of correction to ensure
that it provides for the abatement, elimination, or correction of the
violation.  The Department shall reject a submitted plan only if it finds any
of the following deficiencies:
1)         The plan does not appear to address the conditions or
occurrences that are the basis of the violation and an evaluation of the
practices, policies, and procedures that have caused or contributed to the
conditions or occurrences.
2)         The plan is not specific enough to indicate the actual actions
the facility will be taking to abate, eliminate, or correct the violation.
3)         The plan does not provide for measures that will abate,
eliminate, or correct the violation.
4)         The plan does not provide steps that will avoid future
occurrences of the same and similar violations.
5)         The plan does not provide for timely completion of the
corrective action, considering the seriousness of the violation, any possible
harm to the patients, and the extent and complexity of the corrective action.
f)         The Department shall notify the licensee or applicant in
writing of the acceptance or rejection of the plan of correction, including
specific reasons for the rejection of the plan.  The facility shall have 10
days after receipt of notice of rejection in which to submit a modified plan
that addresses the requirements of subsection (c) of this Section
plexity of the corrective action.
f)         The Department shall notify the licensee or applicant in
writing of the acceptance or rejection of the plan of correction, including
specific reasons for the rejection of the plan.  The facility shall have 10
days after receipt of notice of rejection in which to submit a modified plan
that addresses the requirements of subsection (c) of this Section.
g)         If a licensee or applicant fails to make a timely submission
of a modified plan of correction, or such modified plan is not acceptable to
the Department, a plan of correction shall be specified and imposed by the
Department.
h)         The Department shall verify the completion of the corrective
action required by the plan of correction within the specified time period
during subsequent investigations, surveys and evaluations of the facility.
