A facility person's record shall include a copy of requests for the criminal history record and child abuse registry clearance information, a copy of the disclosure statement and a copy of the completed clearance information required under the CPSL. Facility persons #8 and #11 may not work in a childcare position at the facility. |
|||
|
Provider Response: (Contact the State Licensing Office for more information.) Staff #11 is a seasonal staff and had not been at the center since last summer. When the volunteer clearance was discovered the staff (who is a school district teacher) was asked to forward an employment Child Abuse, which is on hand at the facility currently. Staff #8 was immediately removed from direct care and an employment Pa Child Abuse was obtained. This staff had all other necessary clearances on file at the facility and all clearances were without any record. The clearances for staff #4 were the responsibility of staff #4 to obtain timely. Although the clearances were obtained late, they all showed no record. Since this was not done the director has now implemented a system that ensures the director is aware of clearance timelines and when all clearances need to be obtained, including Pa Mandated Reporter training. |
