Are provider staff who are accused of wrong-doing or substantiated in an investigation afforded an opportunity to appeal?
There is no process for appealing the results of an investigation. However, there is a process for requesting an investigation review. A provider may request such a review on behalf of a staff member. Staff who are substantiated for abuse, neglect or mistreatment and are referred for placement on the abuse registry have due process and appeal rights.
