Based on records reviewed, it was determined that 1 of 4 staff records did not include a completed Central Registry Search within 5 years of the date of the original search. Evidence: 1. Staff #2 - On the date of inspection, there was no current search on-file. The expired search was presented to the inspector. 2. The previous expired search was completed on 9/13/17, thus requiring a new search to be completed by 9/12/22.

The Director said the Owner handles background checks, and that follow-up with VDSS will occur next week.
On 1/9/23, the inspector received an email from center management requesting the following statement be added to the plan of correction: The report was sent on 11/28/22, prior to it's due date. The delay is with department of social services. LAP will again follow up to see why there is a delay in their processing.
On 1/11/23, the inspector received from center management a completed Central Registry Search for Staff #2, dated as completed on 12/19/22.
