55 Pa. Code § 6000.332. Recommendation variance.

§ 6000.332. Recommendation variance.

 (a)  The weighting and percentage of compliance systems are guidelines used to determine the type of licensing to be issued. It is recognized that in special circumstances these standardized scoring systems may not be in the best interests of the clients and that professional discretion must be exercised.

 (b)  The policies and procedures for the type of certificate of compliance should be the basis for the licensure recommendation. If the Regional Mental Retardation Program Manager disagrees with the type of certificate to be issued based on this chapter, the Regional Mental Retardation Program Manager may make a recommendation that differs from these policies and procedures. If the Regional Mental Retardation Program Manager makes a recommendation for licensure that is inconsistent with the manual instructions, detailed written justification for the variance from the Regional Mental Retardation Program Manager will accompany the licensure packet.
