Plan of Correction
Counseling staff will participate in training in documenting services as stated in the treatment plan on or before May 1, 2016. This training will review appropriate frequency and duration of individual and group sessions for the clients served in this clinic. The training will detail how to document client no shows and gaps in treatment. The training will reinforce the importance of consistent sessions. The training will remind counselors that counseling services are to be provided according to the individual treatment and rehabilitation plan.



Individual treatment and rehabilitation plans, records of service and progress notes will be reviewed monthly in order to ensure that the counselors are documenting services as stated in the treatment plan. Reviews of the record will be conducted by the clinical supervisor. All treatment records from May 1, 2016 will be in compliance.
