Violations

1
Standard 63.2(17)-1720.1-B-4
Based on the review of 5 staff records, the center failed to get out of state background checks for one staff, staff C.
Evidence: One staff member indicates on her sworn disclosure statement that she has lived in 4 other states in the last 5 years. The center does not have any background checks for the staff from other states. The center does have the required Virginia background checks.
Plan of Correction: We did not know we needed to get this. We will make sure we get the required background checks from the other state. Upon further discussion with the staff she has only lived in one state other than Virginia in the last 5 years. We will have her fill out a new sworn disclosure to reflect that.
