Your goal is to guarantee that program participants enjoy the full benefits of community living, with access to services in the most integrated and least restrictive settings possible. You'll champion their rights, freedoms, and dignity to the maximum extent by performing onsite reviews at provider agency offices and members' residences throughout the state.

• Thoroughly review and analyze various documentation, including treatment plans, medication records, incident reports, care recommendations, training certifications, and associated records.
• Conduct interviews and observations involving program members, direct care staff, and professional staff.
• Identify and meticulously document specific quality indicators to monitor and track program performance.
• Collect, assess, and report review-related data, ensuring compliance with policy and safety indicators.
• Summarize findings from reviews, recognize trends, and prepare comprehensive reports.
• Provide education and guidance on compliance and issue remediation.
• Attend training sessions, scheduled meetings, and maintain up-to-date information for conducting reviews.
• Travel to homes and facilities within the state of West Virginia is required, and occasional overnight stays may be necessary.
