Review individual Wisconsin
Administrative Codes, Chapter DHS 132 (exit DHS).
Citation Class Code definitions (from Wisconsin
Statutes (exit DHS), Chapter 50):
50.04(4)(b) Classification of
violations.
1. A class "A" violation is a
violation of this subchapter or of the rules promulgated thereunder which
creates a condition or occurrence relating to the operation and
maintenance of a nursing home presenting a substantial probability that
death or serious mental or physical harm to a resident will result
therefrom.
2. A class "B" violation is a
violation of this subchapter or of the rules promulgated thereunder which
creates a condition or occurrence relating to the operation and
maintenance of a nursing home directly threatening to the health,
safety or welfare of a resident.
3. A class "C" violation is a
violation of this subchapter or of the rules promulgated thereunder which
creates a condition or occurrence relating to the operation and
maintenance of a nursing home which does not directly threaten the
health, safety or welfare of a resident.
Depending on a facility's compliance history and
its response when the deficiency is brought to its attention, a nursing
home surveyor has three options in assessing a class "C"
violation:
1. Entering a notation. A
surveyor enters a notation if the same state code provision has not been
cited against the facility in the previous two years, and facility staff
correct the deficient practice before the end of the survey. Where a
surveyor enters a notation for a class "C" violation, the
citation list will have 'CLASS C DEFICIENCY -- CORRECTED BEFORE VISIT
COMPLETED' entered under 'CLASS CODE'.
2. Entering a correction order.
A surveyor enters a correction order if the same state code provision has
not been cited against the facility in the previous two years, and the
facility staff do not correct the deficient practice before the end of the
survey. Where a surveyor enters a correction order, the citation list will
have 'CLASS C DEFICIENCY -- CORRECTION ORDER SERVED' entered under 'CLASS
CODE'.
3. Sanctioning as an unmodified
class 'C' violation. A surveyor cites a deficiency as a class 'C'
deficiency, subject to all forfeitures and other penalties that are
prescribed for offenses of that level, if the facility was cited for the
same state code provision within the past two years. A surveyor will also
cite a facility with an unmodified class 'C' violation if, during a
facility revisit, he or she determines that a facility has failed to
correct a class 'C' deficiency that had originally resulted in issuance of
a correction order. In addition, if a surveyor conducts a revisit and
finds that a deficiency that had originally been cited as a class 'A' or
'B' violation now only poses an indirect risk of harm, he or she may
recite the deficiency as an unmodified class 'C' violation. Where a
surveyor cites a facility with an unmodified class 'C' violation, the
citation list will have 'CLASS C DEFICIENCY' entered under 'CLASS CODE'.
