The verification review must include, but is not limited to:

(a)

Review of documents, policies and procedures, and records;

(b)

Review of techniques used while providing dental sealants;

Review of infection control practices; and

(d)

On-site observation of the client environment and physical set-up.

Following a review, Program staff may conduct an exit interview with the Local School Dental Sealant Program representative(s). During the exit interview Program staff shall:

Inform the Local School Dental Sealant Program representative(s) of the preliminary findings of the review; and

(b)

Give the Local School Dental Sealant Program representative(s) 10 working days to submit additional facts or other information to the Program staff in response to the findings.

(6)

Within four weeks of the on-site visit, Program staff must prepare and provide the Local School Dental Sealant Program with a written report of the findings from the on-site review.

(7)

If no certification deficiencies are found during the review, the Program shall issue written findings to the Local School Dental Sealant Program indicating no deficiencies were found.

(8)

If certification deficiencies are found during the on-site review, the Program may take action in compliance with OAR 333-028-0350 (Local School Dental Sealant Programs: Compliance).

At any time, a Local School Dental Sealant Program may request an administrative review of compliance, which includes one on-site visit. The review will be considered a “no penalty” review with the exception of gross violation or negligence that may require temporary suspension of services.
