During today’s visit the program’s license and a copy of the NC Summary of the Law were prominently posted. Upon arrival I was greeted at the primary entrance of the program by Ms. L.

Rated License Process : I discussed the rated license process with you today. I explained that when your temporary license expires on February 21, 2025, a star rated license will be issued. We reviewed how to earn points towards a star rated license. Program Standard Points: You can earn two or more program points by completing a three-month self-study. The three-month self-study utilizes the FCERS-R book to choose indicators that you would like to create a plan to improve at your facility. This written plan must explain what indicators you plan to work on, what your goals are, and how you will work towards that goal. Finally, the plan should include the outcome of your three-month self-study in those areas chosen. Ms. Davis is working with Ms. Godfrey from CCRI, preparing for her Self-Study. Earning three or more points in program standards would be determined by completing a three-month self-study as well as your score on the FCCERS-R environmental rating scale assessment. If you would like to request to have the FCCERS-R assessment completed, we must request the assessment by November 21, 2024. The Application for Assessment for a Two Component Star Rated License form and the Rated License Assessment Request Review form were given to you during today’s visit.

Education Standard Points: Ms. Davis stated she created a WORKS account is working to get her original transcripts. Quality Point: You can choose to earn one extra point toward your star rated license by meeting one of the quality point options. I reviewed the quality point options with you today.

A five-star license can be earned if your total points are between 13-15 points. A four-star license can be earned if your total points are between 10-12 points. A three-star license can be earned if your total points are between 7-9 points. A two-star license can be earned if your total points are between 4-6 points.

Rated License Process : I discussed the rated license process with you today. I explained that when your temporary license expires on February 21, 2025, a star rated license will be issued. We reviewed how to earn points towards a star rated license. Program Standard Points: You can earn two or more program points by completing a three-month self-study. The three-month self-study utilizes the FCERS-R book to choose indicators that you would like to create a plan to improve at your facility. This written plan must explain what indicators you plan to work on, what your goals are, and how you will work towards that goal. Finally, the plan should include the outcome of your three-month self-study in those areas chosen. Ms. Davis is working with Ms. Godfrey from CCRI, preparing for her Self-Study. Earning three or more points in program standards would be determined by completing a three-month self-study as well as your score on the FCCERS-R environmental rating scale assessment. If you would like to request to have the FCCERS-R assessment completed, we must request the assessment by November 21, 2024. The Application for Assessment for a Two Component Star Rated License form and the Rated License Assessment Request Review form were given to you during today’s visit.

Education Standard Points: Ms. Davis stated she created a WORKS account is working to get her original transcripts. Quality Point: You can choose to earn one extra point toward your star rated license by meeting one of the quality point options. I reviewed the quality point options with you today.

A five-star license can be earned if your total points are between 13-15 points. A four-star license can be earned if your total points are between 10-12 points.
