1. Whenever an administrator charged with
supervision of a licensed employee believes it is necessary to admonish the
employee for a reason that the administrator believes may lead to demotion or
dismissal or may cause the employee not to be reemployed under the provisions
of NRS 391.750 , the administrator shall:
(a) Except as otherwise provided in subsection 3,
bring the matter to the attention of the employee involved, in writing, stating
the reasons for the admonition and that it may lead to the employees demotion,
dismissal or a refusal to reemploy him or her, and make a reasonable effort to
assist the employee to correct whatever appears to be the cause for the
employees potential demotion, dismissal or a potential recommendation not to
reemploy him or her; and
(b) Except as otherwise provided in NRS 391.760 , allow reasonable time for
improvement, which must not exceed 3 months for the first admonition.
The
admonition must include a description of the deficiencies of the employee and
the action that is necessary to correct those deficiencies.
2. An admonition issued to a licensed
employee who, within the time granted for improvement, has met the standards
set for the employee by the administrator who issued the admonition must be
removed from the records of the employee together with all notations and
indications of its having been issued. The admonition must be removed from the
records of the employee not later than 3 years after it is issued.
3. An administrator need not admonish an
employee pursuant to paragraph (a) of subsection 1 if the administrator has
been informed by the superintendent that the superintendent intends to
recommend the dismissal of the employee to the board in the manner set forth in NRS 391.822 , 391.824 and 391.826 .
4. A licensed employee is subject to
immediate dismissal or a refusal to reemploy according to the procedures
provided in NRS 391.650 to 391.826 , inclusive, without the admonition
required by this section, on grounds contained in paragraphs (b), (f), (g),
