If an aide is found guilty by a court of law or pleads nolo contendere for abusing or neglecting a resident or misappropriating a resident's property, it is not necessary to offer an administrative hearing concerning the same incident before making a notation in the registry. The trial and court order satisfy the Social Security Act's requirements for a hearing. In this case, the findings of the court will be placed on the Nurse Aide Registry.
