There is an upcoming vacancy for a facility representative on the Long-term Care
(LTC) Informal Dispute Resolution (IDR) Committee. This 7-member committee
includes representatives from facilities and various state agencies, including
the Ombudsman and the Division's LTC program. The committee generally meets the
first Tuesday of each month to review facility challenges to the evidence
surrounding disputed deficiencies, in accordance with Sections 7212 of the State
Operations Manual.
Facility representatives must hold the position of
administrator, nursing director, or clinical consultant (without broad
involvement in multiple facilities), and must have at least 6 months experience
in their position at their current facility. We encourage facility
representatives outside the Denver area to apply; committee members may, on
occasion, participate by phone.
Facility representatives on the
committee serve for two years. Each representative has an alternate with whom
they may share voting responsibilities.
Interested facility
representatives may submit inquiries or send a resume to elaine.sabyan@state.co.us.
