Enhance training for staff involved in the HQS process to ensure a thorough understanding of compliance requirements. Establish a system of regular audits to identify and rectify lapses in HQS enforcement promptly. Plan for Corrective Action: Management is establishing an internal procedure to conduct monthly reviews of HQS inspection requirements to ensure all mandated inspections are completed promptly and in compliance with program standards.
