Based upon record reviews and interviews, the center failed to ensure two of the four staff records reviewed had a criminal record report (CRR) completed within 30 days of hire.
Evidence: 1. Staff 3 (hired 8/8/2022) had no CRR on file.
2. Staff 4 (hired 6/21/2022) had a CRR dated as completed on 8/12/2022.
3. On 9/28/2022, the licensing inspector (LI) interviewed the director who stated the board members had instructed her to hold off on submitting the CRRs due to the money that was lost last year for completing them.
Plan of Correction:
Director has notified the Board of Directors that per state licensing, the center cannot wait 30 days to start CRR on new hires. Director filed the CRR for staff 3 the day she returned to the building (9/29/2022). Going forward, CRRs on new hires will be completed on their first day as part of the orientation and training process. For staff 4, once again, the director and administrative assistant will review all new hire files to ensure that all sections are completed and dated within a timely manner compliant with licensing standards.
Standard #:
22VAC40-61-180-E-1
Description:
Based upon documentation and an interview, the center failed to ensure one of four staff had a tuberculin (TB) skin test/assessment completed 30 days prior to hire or seven days after hire.
Evidence: 1. Staff 3 was hired 8/8/2022 and the TB skin test/assessment on file was dated as completed on 3/7/2022.
2. On 9/28/2022, the LI interviewed staff 6 who stated this was the only TB skin test/assessment on file.
Plan of Correction:
Staff member 3 will have a TB assessment performed by the Center registered nurse (RN) on the next day that staff 3 is in Center (9/29/2022) before she starts work on the floor with participants. A chart has been made that will be posted both in the executive director?s office as well as behind the administrative assistant?s desk. The chart contains staff first names and dates of when TB?s are due. Going forward, when a new hire starts at the center, the new hire?s folder will be reviewed by the executive director and administrative assistant to ensure that all sections and dates are correct and completed within the right timeframe.
