Inspections; investigations
An assisted living rule from ADHS, cited on Arizona licensure inspections and complaint investigations. TagProof groups it under Records and administration. ADHS cites the rule and its text on each statement of deficiencies; no severity is attached.
33% of the facilities cited on ARS-36-427 have been cited on it again at a later visit. A finding that recurs is usually a gap in the routine that produces the record — the same check missed, or done and not documented in a form the surveyor accepts — rather than a new fault.

What the requirement says
ADHS’s requirement text as it appears on the inspection report, verbatim.
C. On a determination by the director that there is reasonable cause to believe a health care institution is not adhering to the licensing requirements of this chapter, the director and any duly designated employee or agent of the director, including county health representatives and county or municipal fire inspectors, consistent with standard medical practices, may enter on and into the premises of any health care institution that is licensed or required to be licensed pursuant to this chapter at any reasonable time for the purpose of determining the state of compliance with this chapter, the rules adopted pursuant to this chapter and local fire ordinances or rules. Any application for licensure under this chapter constitutes permission for and complete acquiescence in any entry or inspection of the premises during the pendency of the application and, if licensed, during the term of the license. If an inspection reveals that the health care institution is not adhering to the licensing requirements established pursuant to this chapter, the director may take action authorized by this chapter. Any health care institution, including an accredited hospital, whose license has been suspended or revoked in accordance with this section is subject to inspection on application for relicensure or reinstatement of license.
