On-Line Report Summaries

Our Licensing Specialists monitor DHS-licensed private provider agencies. Licensing Specialists execute this responsibility through site inspections, record reviews, and interviews with youth, foster parents, staff, and board members. All monitoring activities occur annually, throughout the year.

The OLM is providing you with a summary of the results of each quarterly site visit. The report reflects the professional assessments and observations of our Licensing Specialists and provides an overall view of how Providers are doing in providing care to children and youth as it relates to COMAR.

You may see that Providers that are active or re-licensed have COMAR violations noted in the report. In these instances, the OLM has determined that the violations do not present a risk to the health and safety of children based on impact, scope, and frequency. Even so, Providers are required to remediate any COMAR violations cited.

Please use this key for your reference:

ACTIVE

Provider continues to meet COMAR requirements to maintain their current license and does not have citations that present health and safety risks based on impact, scope, and frequency.

RE-LICENSED

Provider meets the COMAR requirements for re-licensure and does not have citations that present health and safety risks based on impact, scope, and frequency.

VOLUNTARILY SURRENDERED

Provider is no longer providing the service and voluntarily turned in their license.

SUSPENDED

Providers are found to have violations that present a risk to the health and safety of youth based on impact, scope, and frequency and are prohibited from operating until the violations are remediated.

REVOKED

Providers are found to have serious violations that present a risk to the health and safety of youth based on impact, scope, and frequency, and is permanently prohibited from operating.

Please see the Code of Maryland Annotated Regulations (COMAR) for more information.
