Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, a county department may act immediately to revoke the certification of a county-certified foster care home when the county department has reason to believe that a child residing in such foster care home is subject to an immediate and direct threat to his or her safety and welfare or when a substantial violation of a fundamental standard of care warrants immediate action. If the county department acts pursuant to this section, a due process hearing shall be held within five days after such action and conducted as such hearing would normally be conducted pursuant to article 4 of title 24, C.R.S.
