(3) Activities;

(4) Facilities;

(5) Premises; and

(6) Records created and maintained pursuant to these rules.

(c) The licensee or registrant may accompany DHHS/RHS inspectors during an inspection at times other than the private consultation with workers.

(h) Notwithstanding the other provisions of He-P 4019.06, DHHS/RHS inspectors shall refuse to permit accompaniment by any individual who deliberately interferes with a fair and orderly inspection.
