“Based on a review of six staff records and interview, the center did not obtain the results of a sex offender registry check and a search of the child abuse and neglect registry or equivalent registry from two states in which one staff member had resided in the preceding five years within the required timeframe. Evidence: 1) The record of Staff #5, employed on 09/01/21, indicated the staff had resided in two other states outside of Virginia within the last five years. The record did not contain a sex offender registry check or a search of the child abuse and neglect registry from one of the states. For the second state, the record did not contain a sex offender registry check and the child abuse and neglect registry was received on 01/27/23. The out-of-state sex offender registry check is required to be obtained prior to employment and the out-of-state search for founded complaints of child abuse or neglect is required to be requested within the first 30 days of employment. An out-of-state criminal history record information check was not required because the states participate in the National Fingerprint File (NFF) program through the FBI. 2) During interview, a member of management acknowledged the required out-of-state background checks were not obtained within the required timeframe.”
