Evidence: 1) The record for Staff #3, hired on 05/10/2021, contained a sworn statement that was dated 05/13/2021. 2) During interview, a member of management confirmed the sworn statement for Staff #3 was completed after their hire date.

An employee or volunteer of a licensed or registered child welfare agency or of a family day home approved by a family day system must not be employed or provide volunteer service until the agency or home has the person's completed sworn statement or affirmation.
Plan of Correction: Per the Center: Moving forward all staff paperwork should be complete before they begin training."
