record keeping requirements of 38 CFR 17.63(i). See 38 CFR 17.74(q). In 
addition, the CRC must maintain and make available upon request of the 
approving official, records related to CRC staff requirements, and 
provide that the CRC must have sufficient, qualified staff must be on 
duty and available to care for the resident and ensure the health and 
safety of each resident.
