Comments:
This inspection was conducted by licensing staff using an alternate remote protocol, necessary due to a state of emergency health pandemic declared by the Governor of Virginia.
A monitor inspection was initiated on December 3, 2020 and concluded on December 10, 2020. The owner of the program was contacted by telephone to initiate the virtual, remote inspection. There were 13 children present with two staff. The inspector reviewed a list of items required to complete the inspection. The inspector reviewed two children?s records and four new staff records during the virtual, remote inspection to ensure documentation was complete.
Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliance(s) with applicable standards or law and violations were documented on the violation notice issued to the facility.
The Licensing Inspector has reviewed with the provider COVID-19 Essential Guidance for Child Care programs.
Based on record review and interview the center failed to ensure that fingerprints are obtained prior to employment. Evidence: 1 - The record of staff 2 contains a fingerprint background check that is dated August 19, 2020. However, the documented date of hire for staff 2 is August 17, 2020. Therefore, the fingerprint background check was obtained after employment. 2 - Staff 1 confirmed that the date on the fingerprint background check for staff 3 is recorded as August 19, 2020 and the staff's date of hire, is recorded as August 17, 2020.
Plan of Correction:
In the future I will make sure The date of hire is documented After the Finger print background Check Is obtained.
