Oregon Notice to Respondent & Request for Hearing is a form issued by the Oregon Department of Human Services when an individual is accused of abusing, neglecting, or exploiting an elderly person, or a person with a physical or mental disability. This form serves as notification to the accused that an investigation is being conducted and that a hearing is being requested to resolve the complaint. The Oregon Notice to Respondent & Request for Hearing is issued in two forms: * Notice of Opportunity for Hearing: This form is sent to the accused and informs them of their right to a hearing to contest the allegations and the potential consequences of a ruling against them. This form also includes information on how to request a hearing and the timeline for requesting a hearing. * Request for Hearing: This form is sent to the Oregon Department of Human Services and requests a hearing to resolve the complaint. Both forms are required to initiate the hearing process.
