EE, 262 Ill. App.3d at 551. In Chiakulas v. Department of Mental Health Developmental Disabilities, 240 Ill. App.3d 84, 608 N.E.2d 114 (1992), a facility manager decided to transfer plaintiff to another facility, and plaintiff appealed directly to the Director of the Department. Thus, the Director in Chiakulas did not merely affirm a committee's recommendation but instead personally reviewed the decision of the facility manager.
