Violations
1Evidence:
1. The center did not forward the applicant?s fingerprints and personal descriptive information for Staff 3, Staff 4, and Staff 5 to the Department?s designee, Office of Background Investigations.
2. The center instead obtained a (fingerprint-based) criminal history records check directly from the Virginia State Police for the three staff prior to employment.
A letter with a finding of ?eligible? was not obtained for these staff from the Office of Background Investigations as required for a satisfactory criminal record check. The Code of Virginia requires that an applicant's fingerprints and personal descriptive information obtained pursuant to subdivision 2 of ? 22.1-289.035 be forwarded by the Department or its designee through the Central Criminal Records Exchange to the Federal Bureau of Investigation for the purpose of obtaining national criminal history record information regarding such applicant. The Department or its designee then reports to the child day center whether the applicant is eligible to have responsibility for the safety and well-being of children
