Clearview reports clean regulatory surveys, positive year-end finances and behavioral health relicensing progress
Summary
Clearview administration told the Dodge County Human Services and Health Board that two recent annual surveys produced no deficiencies, the facility's year-end financial position improved by about $3.3 million, and staff are awaiting state relicensure for behavioral health expansion.
Clearview administration told the Human Services and Health Board that two recent annual regulatory surveys — for the brain injury program and behavioral health licenses — produced no deficiencies, and life-safety follow-ups are underway, county staff said.
Why it matters: positive survey results reduce regulatory risk for the nursing facility and its behavioral health programs and support planned remodeling tied to an internal fund balance, staff said.
Survey details and fixes: the facility completed annual surveys for the Clearview Brain Injury program and behavioral health (four licenses) with no deficiencies. Life-safety tasks remain: staff will contact Amanda Povomaker for assistance, and the facility updated its all-hazards assessment and fire-alarm and sprinkler outage contact lists. The battery test for the emergency generator was updated to a conductance test because the site uses maintenance-free batteries, the administrator said.
Staffing and training: census has been "relatively stable," and Clearview reported hosting a career fair with 20 student attendees; several have signed up for a summer CNA class. The facility also changed its minimum shift requirement for flexi/seasonal staff from four to six shifts.
Behavioral health expansion: administration said it met with the state relocation specialist and Disability Rights Wisconsin about resident relocation and held a meeting for residents and responsible parties. The county is awaiting final approval on relicensure for CBH 5 through 8; staff provided additional requested information to the state and expect a decision to follow the state's review timeline.
Finances: county staff said GASB-prepared year-end numbers show the facility ended the period about $3.3 million positive, which the administrator said should cover remodeling without tapping the county general fund and that fund-balance policy requirements have been met.
No formal action was taken; staff said they will update the board on relicensure and regulatory items at future meetings.
