Incident report
 
22VAC40-61-90 Incident Reports Section C--Current regulations require that the licensing inspector be notified of any incident affecting participant safety. This paragraph requires both verbal and later written communication. Incident reports are always available at the centers for the inspectors to view and it required that they be retained at the center for two years. The requirement of both is redundant and would be a burden for staff. Section F--A clarification is needed for this paragraph-Would this include a requirement that a copy of incident reports be placed in the chart? The incident report is normally an internal document for quality assurance and should not be place in a chart.
