Comply with CPSL/CPSL information (3270.32(a)/3270.192(4))
During the renewal inspection conducted on 10/30/2025 observed staff person #1's child abuse clearance is for volunteer purposes. The CPSL was revised to include that facility persons, volunteers and household members who may have resided outside of Pennsylvania in the past 5 years obtain the state(s) in which they've resided criminal history check, state sex offender registry check, and the state child abuse and neglect registry. Staff person #1 confirmed they resided in the state of New Jersey within the past 5 years. Requirement: The operator shall comply with the CPSL and with Chapter 3490 (relating to protective services). A provisional employee may not be permitted to work alone with children and must work within the vicinity of a permanent employee. 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 Person #1 may not work in a child care position at the facility. Correction: Staff Person #1 has not returned to the facility since the date of inspection and will not be permitted to return to work until all required New Jersey state clearances have been obtained, reviewed, and approved by administration. The Center Director has instructed the staff person to immediately complete the New Jersey criminal history check, state sex offender registry check, and the state child abuse and neglect registry check, as required under the CPSL for individuals who have resided outside of Pennsylvania within the past five years. The staff person will remain off the schedule and prohibited from working in any child-care capacity until verified clearances are on file. Once documentation is received, administration will review the clearances prior to determining eligibility for return to work. Until that time, the staff member is considered noncompliant and will not be permitted on the premises in a caregiving role. Inspection: Renewal.
