A violation means an inspector found a licensing rule wasn't met at the time of the visit. Programs are expected to fix what was cited, and the state often asks for a written corrective action plan. Read the official record for details.

Below are all 17 visits in the state's files from September 20, 2011 to November 9, 2026, newest first, with 97 violations in all. A follow-up visit checks on violations cited earlier.

A case result of "Corrective Action Plan" means the state asked the program for a written plan to fix what was cited, and "Closed" means the state lists the case as closed.
