The PREA Coordinator confirmed that monitoring may include placement adjustments, increased supervisory observation, review of disciplinary reports, and ongoing communication with staff and residents to identify any signs of retaliatory behavior.   NNJDC policy requires active monitoring for at least 90 days following any report of sexual abuse or sexual harassment, with periodic status checks of individuals who reported or were involved in an incident. Monitoring may be extended beyond 90 days if ongoing concerns are identified. The PREA Coordinator confirmed this practice during interview.   The facility reported that there were no allegations of sexual abuse or sexual harassment during the audit period; therefore, no retaliation monitoring cases or related documentation were available for review. At the time of the on-site audit, no residents were being held in isolation or otherwise separated as a protective measure against retaliation.   Compliance Determination: Based on the evidence reviewed and interviews conducted, the auditor has determined that NNJDC meets the requirements of this standard.
