Comment on risk management guidance document
 

Arlington CSB concurs with comments submitted by the other Virginia CSBs and our community partners. 

Additionally, the guidance document attempts to propose a “one size fits all” solution for all providers regardless of organization size, census, or budget.

Monitoring and addressing risk in an integral function but processes and personnel roles and responsibilities should be variable according to the resources of the provider.
