Violations

1
Standard 63.2(17)-1720.1-B-4
Based on a review of documentation and interview, the center did not ensure that one out of four staff members obtained a copy of a sex offender registry check from any state in which the individual has resided in the preceding five years prior to hire.

Evidence: 1) The record of Staff #2, hired on 08/11/2021, indicated the staff had resided outside of Virginia in the last five years. The record did not contain the results of an out-of-state sex offender registry check from the state the staff member had resided. 2) During interview, a member of management reported the out-of-state sex offender registry check was not obtained for Staff #2 prior to hire.
Plan of Correction: The results were obtained on 09/08/21. In the future, the center will reference the out-of-state contact list and complete the required out-of-state background check searches prior to hire.
