Wisconsin Nursing Home Administrators (NHA) Practice Exam

If the department determines a class "C" violation, what may the department serve?

1. A citation upon the facility

2. A correction order upon the licensee

3. A letter to the administrator

4. A request for a meeting

The correct answer is: A correction order upon the licensee

If the department determines a class "C" violation, they may serve a correction order upon the licensee. This is the correct response because a correction order is typically issued when a violation is found during an inspection or investigation. It outlines the specific violations that need to be corrected by a certain deadline to ensure the facility is in compliance with regulations. Options A, C, and D are not the correct answers because a citation, letter to the administrator, or a request for a meeting are not the typical methods for addressing violations in this context. A citation is different from a correction order, a letter to the administrator may not have the same legal weight as a correction order, and a request for a meeting might not have the same level of urgency as a correction order.
