State Licensed Group Home for Individuals with a Developmental Disability Facilities in Arizona

ADHS Division of Licensing Mission Statement: To protect the health and safety of Arizonans by providing information, establishing standards, and licensing and regulating health and child care services. The Arizona Department of Health Services-Bureau of Special Licensing conducts licensing inspections, on-site surveys, and complaint investigations to promote quality care and safety and ensure that performance standards are met. Records are created and maintained by Bureau of Special Licensing staff in the licensing division, while the GIS Team extracts the data and creates GIS layers and shares them publicly. Each month, an extract from the ADHS Division of Licensing SQL database is geocoded using ADHS's internal geocoder, and post-processed using a Python script to create and publish feature classes by facility type, including group homes for individuals with a developmental disability. Last Updated: February 2025 Update frequency: Monthly Data FAQs: Some records have “license_expiration” earlier than the “rundate” while the “OPERTION_STATUS” is “ACTIVE”, should we treat all records with “OPERATION_STATUS” of “ACTIVE” as open at the time the data is released? Answer: Yes - ACTIVE is all the current licenses. In 2019 there was a perpetual rule change that affected certain facilities so in lieu of an expiration date, we began tracking the annual fee due date in the "license_expiration" field. Per rule, these facilities can submit annual requirements up to 30 days after the fee due date (aka license expiration in the provider database) so we do expect some to be earlier than the run date. Is the FACID of the same facility maintained unique and same throughout all releases? If a facility is purchased by a different company or has it’s name changed, is the FACID changed? Answer: The FACID represents a licensed premise - in many cases the facility ID is maintained when purchased by a different owner but under federal rule, certain facilities may choose to have a new CMS certification number which would require a new FACID be issued for that premise. What’s the unit type of capacities for different categories? Answer: This varies - it can be child capacity, bed count, dialysis station, etc. For Group_Home_for_Individuals_with_a_Developmental_Disability and Residential_Facility, how to tell if the employer’s office is at the facility VS the employer’s office is somewhere else and employees are sent to those facilities? Also is there a way to tell if a facility only has part time workers (Like workers only need to be at the residential facility less than 8hr per day or less than 5 days a week )? Answer: This is not currently available on the public database The data contains a 'COUNTY' field and a "N_County' field - which one should I use to filter results? Answer: N_County - this is the county that's assigned when a record is geocoded using the physical street address, vs one that is assigned manually during the licensing process.ADHS许可司使命宣言：通过提供信息、制定标准、许可并监管卫生与儿童保健服务，保障亚利桑那州居民的健康与安全。亚利桑那州卫生服务部（ADHS）特殊许可局负责开展许可检查、现场调研与投诉调查，以提升服务质量与安全性，并确保绩效标准得到遵守。特殊许可局的工作人员在许可司创建并维护相关记录，而地理信息系统（GIS）团队则提取数据、创建GIS图层并对外公开共享。每月，ADHS许可司SQL数据库的提取数据会通过ADHS内部地理编码工具进行地理编码，随后通过Python脚本进行后处理，按设施类型创建并发布要素类，其中包括发育障碍人士集体之家。 最后更新时间：2025年2月；更新频率：每月 数据常见问题解答： 1. 部分记录的"license_expiration（许可有效期）"早于"rundate（运行日期）"，但"OPERTION_STATUS（运营状态）"为"ACTIVE（活跃）"，是否应将所有"OPERATION_STATUS"为"ACTIVE"的记录视为数据发布时处于开放状态？ 回答：是——"ACTIVE"即代表所有有效当前许可。2019年出台了一项永久性规则变更，影响了部分设施：我们不再为其设置有效期，转而在"license_expiration"字段中追踪年度费用缴纳截止日期。根据规则，此类设施可在费用缴纳截止日期（即供应商数据库中的许可有效期）后的30天内提交年度合规材料，因此部分记录的该字段值早于运行日期属于正常情况。 2. 同一设施的FACID（设施标识）是否会保持唯一且在所有数据发布版本中保持一致？若某设施被其他公司收购或更名，FACID是否会变更？ 回答：FACID代表已许可的经营场所。在多数情况下，若设施易主，设施ID将保持不变；但根据联邦规则，部分设施可选择申请新的CMS（联邦医疗保险与医疗补助服务中心）认证编号，此时该经营场所将被分配新的FACID。 3. 不同类别的容量单位类型是什么？ 回答：此情况不固定，可包括儿童容量、床位数量、透析机位等。 4. 针对"Group_Home_for_Individuals_with_a_Developmental_Disability（发育障碍人士集体之家）"与"Residential_Facility（居住设施）"两类设施，如何区分雇主办公室设于本设施内，与雇主办公室设于别处、员工被派驻至本设施的情况？此外，是否可识别出仅配备兼职员工的设施（例如员工每日在居住设施内工作时长不足8小时，或每周工作天数不足5天）？ 回答：当前公开数据库中暂无此类信息。 5. 数据包含"COUNTY"与"N_County"两个字段，应使用哪一个字段进行结果筛选？ 回答：请使用"N_County"。该字段为根据设施实际街道地址进行地理编码时分配的县域信息，与许可流程中手动分配的"COUNTY"字段不同。
