HMDRF Recognition of Accreditation
As a result of CAMPS sponsored legislation, AB 1387 (Arambula), signed by the Governor a licensed HMDRF that is accredited will be exempt from routine inspection. Inspection would still be triggered by a complaint and any new applicant would be subject to initial inspection.
CDPH has posted revisions to the new and renewal application form that now includes a question on where the HMDRF is accredited, by whom and requests a copy of the accreditation certificate . Since renewal is annual they will establish which existing licensees are accredited and be able to exempt them from routine inspection
