(2) The severity and frequency of a repetition or pattern of deficiencies ;
(3) The extent to which a deficiency or repetition or pattern of deficiencies can be corrected;
(4) How quickly you can make the necessary correction (for a suspension, whether the deficiency can be corrected within the suspension period);
(5) Whether you demonstrate the responsibility and ability to maintain compliance with minimum standards, rules, and statutes ;
(6) Whether we must impose conditions to avoid further deficiencies;
(7) Your compliance history;
(8) The degree or immediacy of danger or threat of danger posed to the health or safety of children; and
