INITIAL COMMENTS
This report is a result of an on-site licensure renewal inspection conducted on March 7, 2025 by staff from the Bureau of Program Licensure. Based on the findings of the on-site inspection EDTR6701 New Path Recovery was found to not be in compliance with the applicable chapters of 28 PA Code which pertain to the facility. Therefore, deficiencies were identified during this inspection and a plan of correction is required.	Plan of Correction
