Specialized training may include, but is not limited to, training on positioning, feeding protocols, positive behavior supports, person-centered planning, or trauma-informed care.
(e) Suspected non-compliance that relates to the immediate health, safety, welfare, or rights of participants, shall be addressed immediately after the situation is discovered. Providers addressing suspected non-compliance under this section shall be given fifteen (15) business days from the date of the report issued by the Division to submit a corrective action plan.
