Answer to Question 1

A
In such cases, the surveyor may forward the record showing the relevant findings to the appro-priate state agency or board for review of the nurse's practice, requesting a determination of whether the nurse may have violated the state's nurse practice act. Regulations do not specify that the nurse be terminated, have remediation, or have an unannounced reevaluation.
