The Review Panel closely monitored the placement of Willowbrook residents in the community and was quick to designate placements as invalid if they did not comply exactly with the terms of the consent Decree. Since it was not feasible for the Panel to review every placement in detail, a series of community placement audits were conducted. Trained auditors examined the records of a sample of all residents placed in a designated time frame, spoke with both the client and the primary care provider, and analyzed the suitability of the client's daily schedule of programming. This subseries contains the raw data from each of these audits including worksheets used by auditors to evaluate each placement, notes from interviews and site visits, and copies of class member records and placement plans. Also included are summaries of audit data and final reports on findings.
