(a) Each individualized program plan shall be reviewed at regular intervals to determine the client's progress toward the stated goals and objectives of the plan and to determine whether the plan should be modified because of the client's present level of performance. These reviews should be based upon relevant progress notes in the client's clinical record and upon other related information, and a reasonable effort shall be made to obtain and utilize input from the client and his representatives.

(b) Any time a client is found by the person in charge of the client's habilitation no longer to be in need of services from the department, the client shall be discharged.

(c) At least 14 days before discharge of the client or transfer of the client pursuant to a modification of his program plan, notice of such action shall be given to the client, his representatives, and, if the client's program plan was ordered by a court, to the court which entered such order.
