The point is made.

I want to ask about inspections and referrals where an inspection is carried out in either a public or private nursing home and concern is expressed or issues are raised. What is the normal procedure in the notification process? Does notification take place instantly? Are the concerns of the inspection group brought to the attention of the authorities immediately in the particular nursing homes and to the attention of the health authorities?
