What Constitutes Immediate Jeopardy – Appendix Q Updates (ON-DEMAND)
- Registration Closed
Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) is a situation in which the person receiving care has suffered or is likely to have suffered serious injury, harm, impairment or death as a result of noncompliance with one or more health and safety requirements.
