The Senior Center Coordinator will arrange to counsel with the participant. A confidential file will be maintained on the incident(s) of disruptive behavior. In addition, the steps taken by the coordinator to curtail the disruptive behavior will also be documented. After oral warnings are given to the participant by the duly authorized staff, he/she will report the participant to the Senior Center Director. The Director will in turn present the situation to the Council on Aging Advisory Board. The Cabarrus County Advisory Board will schedule a joint conference with the disruptive participant. This same procedure will apply to those participants who are verbally abusive to the staff. In the joint conference the disruptive participant will be informed of his/her disruptive behavior and how it impacts negatively on other participants and/or staff. They will then be informed that such behavior is not tolerated in the center. The Cabarrus County Advisory Board will then inform the disruptive participants that he/she cannot attend the center's activities or programs for thirty (30) days.
