On November 3, 2023 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kari McWilliams conducted an unannounced case management visit and met with Director Lori Rogowski. LPA McWilliams toured the facility and a census was taken. LPA McWilliams informed Director Rogowski the purpose of the inspection was due to a unusual incident report that occurred on October 31, 2023 late in the afternoon. It is documented Director Rowgowski attempted to report on November 1, 2023 but was unable to. Director Rogowski self-reported to the Department on November 2, 2023.
