Comments:
This inspection was conducted by licensing staff using an alternate remote protocol, including telephone contacts, documents review, and a virtual tour of the program.

A monitoring inspection was initiated on 09/15/2021 and concluded on 09/16/2021. The director was contacted by telephone and a virtual inspection was conducted. There were thirty-four children present, ranging in ages from 2 years to 5 years, with seven staff supervising. The inspector reviewed compliance in the areas of administration, physical plant, staffing and supervision, programming, medication, special care and emergencies and nutrition. A total of three child records and three staff records were reviewed.

Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliance with applicable standards or law and violations were documented on the violation notice issued to the program.

Violations:
Standard #: 63.2(17)-1720.1-B-4
Description: Based on review of staff records, the center failed to ensure that an out of state criminal history name check required for non-NFF states prior to the 1st day of employment.

Evidence:
1. Staff #3's hire date was 08/09/2021. Staff #3 indicated on sworn disclosure statement dated 07/06/2021 that lived out the state of Virginia within the last five years.
2. The out of state criminal history name check was dated 06/12/20219.
3. The administrator confirmed that the out of state criminal history name check was completed by the old facility and not the current program.

Plan of Correction: The administrator sent out a new out of state criminial history check immediately. I will make sure that when it is required we will get our own checks and not depend on the ones from other facilities.
