In a June 14, 2021 memo, DSS announced the agency will resume on-site field inspections effective June 15, 2021. The decision to do so was based on evaluation of information related to disease transmission and vaccination rates.

The memo includes the Division of Licensing Program’s (DOLP) COVID-19 On-Site Inspection Safety Protocol and the DOLP COVID-19 Safety Expectations and Screening Form. These documents outline the department’s expectations for the return to on-site inspections. Inspection protocols have been updated to ensure that appropriate health and safety precautions have been implemented to minimize the spread of the virus.

We encourage assisted living members to read the memo and protocols in their entirety.
