During a review conducted on October 10, 2025, it was determined that: (1) your operation?s administrator failed to ensure compliance with the current HM Plan(s); and (2) more than 12 months had elapsed since the effective date of the plan. As you know, the heightened monitoring plans for your operation included a specific ?planned end date? at the original 12-month mark by which your operation was expected to meet all heightened monitoring criteria necessary to move out of active heightened monitoring to a phase of ?post plan monitoring?. As a direct result of the administrator?s failure to ensure timely compliance with heightened monitoring plans, your operation was unable to successfully move to post-plan monitoring by the original ?planned end date? necessitating previous extension. Furthermore, due to the recent citations issued on 9/29/2025, your operation?s ?planned end date? must now be revised again, and the period of heightened monitoring must be extended again. Further details of the administrator?s failure to ensure compliance include the following: Your operation received 1 high and 2 medium-high, citations in a pattern/trend category on September 29, 2025. Specifically, the operation was cited for 745.635(2) High, Background check determination - If ineligible then you must immediately remove subject from operation and confirm to CBCU receipt of notice letter, 749.3041(2) Med-High, Physical Environment-Foster home must ensure that equipment and furniture are safe for children, kept clean, and in good repair, 749.2593(c)(6) Med-High, Supervision-Caregivers counted in child/caregiver ratio must implement and follow the children's service plans. The operation has not yet met compliance. - Operation failed to satisfy the conditions of the plan - Operation failed to demonstrate 6 months of successive compliance with the standard and contract requirements that led to heightened monitoring; and - Operation was unable to meet compliance with Medium-High or High weighted licensing citations. Finding: 749.635(2) ? The licensed administrator must ensure the operation complies with current heightened monitoring plans. An administrative penalty will be assessed as a result of this citation, in accordance with Texas Human Resources Code Sec. 42.078. The maximum daily penalty for your operation is $500.
