The purpose of this maintenance policy manual (Manual) is to inform providers of DHS’ expectations for the proper facility maintenance of DHS-funded facilities. The Manual outlines the roles and responsibilities of the provider and DHS as they relate to maintenance, repair and construction. Focusing on the safety of the clients and staff, daily maintenance and repair will be necessary and is the primary responsibility of the provider. For larger repairs and construction related items, DHS will work with the provider on the most effective method to complete the repair. Our goal is to work collaboratively to ensure that each facility is in the best condition to provide a safe and healthy environment.
