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 employee’s 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 employee’s 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), (h), (p), (s), (t) and (u) of subsection 1 of NRS 391.750.
