Description:	Based on review, 1 of 4 household records indicated that a fingerprint check (FPC) on file at the Family Day Home (FDH) was older than 5 years. Evidence - 1. On the date of inspection (05/02/2023), the FPC on file for Household Member #1 was dated - 04/16/2018. 2. The Provider confirmed this finding on the date of inspection.

Standard #:	8VAC20-770-40-D-5-a
Description:	Based on review, a household member did not have a Child Protective Services (CPS) check within 30 days of becoming 14 years old. Evidence - 1. On the date of inspection (05/02/2023), a CPS check was not available for Household Member #4. 2. Based on documentation on file, Household Member #4 turned 14 years of age in last year.
Plan of Correction:	A CPS check will be requested and obtained for this household member.
Standard #:	8VAC20-800-780-B
Description:	Based on review, 4 of 11 children files indicated that annually, the Provider did not review with the parent the emergency contact information (required in 8 VAC 20-800-60 B 2) to ensure the information is correct, and obtain the parent's signed acknowledgment of the review. Evidence - 1. On the date of inspection (05/02/2023), the following children were missing the current annual acknowledgement signed by their parent to verify this review: Child #3 (last review dated - 03/16/22), Child #4 (last review dated - 12/06/21), Child #5 (last review dated - 04/19/22), and Child #8 (last review dated - 04/18/22). 2. This was confirmed on the date of inspection by the Provider.
Plan of Correction:	All emergency information will be reviewed and acknowledged by each parent with a signature and date.
Standard #:	8VAC20-800-70-A
Description:	Based on review, 1 of 11 children files indicated that not all of the required documentation was contained within each child's file. Evidence - 1. On the date of inspection (05/02/2023), Child #11 did not have a signed FDH Medication Administration Policy form on file. 2. The start date for Child #11 was listed as 04/10/2023.
Plan of Correction:	The Policy of the Administration of Medication form will be signed and placed on file.
Standard #:	8VAC20-800-80-B
Description:	Based on review, 2 of 11 children files indicated that the Provider did not verify the identity and age of each child by viewing one of the approved pieces of identification and then documented this review within each child's record. Evidence - 1. On the date of inspection (05/02/2023), the following children did not have a verification of their proof of identification on file: Child #9 (start date - 01/18/23), and Child #11 (start date - 04/10/2023). 2. It appears that this mistake occurred in these 2 files because the Child's Record model form (that has a place for Proof of Identification) was not used. This form was used in the other 9 children files.
Plan of Correction:	All applicable children will have their Ids verified. This verification will be documented.
Standard #:	8VAC20-800-90-C
Description:	Based on review, 4 of 11 children files indicated that the Family Day Home (FDH) did not obtain documentation of additional immunizations for children (who were not exempt from the immunization requirements according to subsection B of this section) once every six months for children under the age of two years.

Evidence - 1. On the date of inspection (05/02/2023), TB documentation on file for Household Member #2 was not available for review. 2. Household Member #2 turned 18 years of age earlier this year and now falls under this standard.
Plan of Correction:	Updated TB documentation will be obtained and placed on file.
