Best Practices for Maltreatment Report and Investigations

Winthrop and Weinstine attorney Christianna Finnern will be presenting, “Best Practices for Maltreatment Report and Investigations” at the 2022 Care Providers of Minnesota Convention.

You have discovered a situation that may rise to the level of maltreatment reportable to MAARC.  What should you do and when should you do it?  Do you have a protocol in place for responding in these situations?  If not, you should strongly consider implementing such a plan so neither you nor your staff are in doubt about who is responsible for taking certain steps in the event of suspected maltreatment, including abuse, neglect, mistreatment and financial exploitation.

Learning objectives:

• Learn what is defined as suspected maltreatment and when it must be reported.
• What happens after the report is made and how to be prepared for the state investigation.
• Learn best practices for internal maltreatment investigations.
