DHHS Criminal Background Checks: Basic Information North Carolina Child Care Providers must obtain access to the ABCMS Provider Portal in order to meet the requirement to report new employees within five days of hire. Access to the Provider Portal is granted by CBC Unit staff after providers have completed the required Moodle training and submit the signed Powerform available at the conclusion of the training. Complete information and instructions are available in this ABCMS Provider Technical Assistance. Once you have been notified that access has been granted, log into the provider portal to locate the unique provider code for the facility. Applicants and employees will use this code to create a connecting application to be associated with your facility or Family Child Care Home. The links include a help document to assist you.

    Name of Operation: MARIE'S CHILD CARE HOME Facility ID: 91000062 Consultant: FELICIA FAISON Operation Type: Family CC Home Case Number: Visit Date: 5/22/2024 Number Present: 3 Completed Date: 5/22/2024 Age: From 1 To 2 Total Minutes: 125 Time In: 12:55 PM Time Out: 03:00 PM Time In: Time Out: List to Use: Family CC Home Type Of Visit: Annual Comp Full Announced/Unannounced: Unannounced The purpose of my unannounced visit today was to monitor compliance with child care requirements applicable to an Annual Compliance review. D. Kilgore, substitute provider, was present and assisted with the visit. M. Smith-wick, owner/operator, was made aware of the visit when I spoke with over the phone shortly after my arrival. A follow-up visit is required so that staff, children and program records can be monitored. I will schedule that visit with M. Smith-wick. This family child care home currently operates with a Four-Star license issued on October 3, 2018, earning seven (7) points in the Education Component, two (2) points in the Program Component and one (1) Quality point. The last annual compliance visit was conducted on June 7, 2023. Children were observed napping on their individual cots and mats. The child who did not sleep read a book with the provider and played quietly. Interactions were nurturing in nature. The following violations of child care requirements were documented. Violation Number Comment Rule 920 Records were not made available for review. The operator stated that staff, children and program records (fire drills, outdoor play area inspections, EPR plan) were on the side of the house that was inaccessible to me or the substitute. G.S. 110-91(9) 1718 The written plan of care was not given and explained to parents of children in care on or before the first day the child attended the home. Parents did not sign a statement acknowledging the receipt and explanation of the plan. Parents did not give written permission for their child to be transported by the operator for specific routine tasks that are included on the written schedule. One (1) child enrolled 3/19/24 does not have a parent signed written plan of care on file. .1712(e )(6) 1828 The Family Child Care Home operator did not discuss the operational policies with parents on or before the child's first day of attendance. One (1) child enrolled 12/12/23 did not have documentation that received/reviewed the operational policies which includes the smoking restriction and summary of law. 10A NCAC 09. 1715(b) 2032 The signed statement regarding receipt of the shaken baby syndrome and abusive head trauma policy did not contain the required information. Three (3) children did not have the required form noting review of the SBS/AHT policy. .1726(b)(1-6) The violations documented above must be corrected immediately. A signed and dated letter of compliance can be mailed or emailed to me and must be received by June 5, 2024. If mailing, you must submit two (2) signed and dated copies. My mailing and email addresses are noted at the bottom. The letter of compliance must detail how it was corrected. Please be aware that any written information you submit regarding the correction of the violation is legal documentation. Therefore, it is important that all submitted information is accurate and truthful. If it is determined that submitted information was inaccurate or willfully falsified, an Administrative Action, including Revocation of the facility’s license could be issued. COMPLIANCE HISTORY Prior to today’s visit your compliance history was 98% over an eighteen (18) month period and remains eligible for the child care license. OWNER & FACILITY PROFILE This program is owned by you, M. Smith, as the sole proprietor and remains in good standing. Should the status of ownership change please contact me, or your assigned Consultant, prior to doing so. OPERATOR, CHILDREN, f& PROGRAM RECORDS I was unable to monitor children or staff records during the visit. The operator, M. Smith-Wick informed me that she was working on these files yesterday and left them in her home. The home is separated from the caregiving space by a door that can be locked. The operator is out of town due to unforeseen circumstances and the only key to the door is with her. Therefore, a violation was documented today as staff and children records were not available for review by me or the substitute provider. Program records such as fire drills, lockdown drills, and outdoor play area inspections are also inaccessible. Technical assistance discussed over the phone that the staff, children and program records be returned to the caregiving space if moved. These files must always be available to not only the Child Care Consultant, but staff in case forms need to be referenced during an emergency. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE & REMINDERS The Clean Water for Carolina Kids program is expanding to the Clean Classrooms for Carolina Kids program. This is a legislatively mandated effort to address lead and asbestos hazards in North Carolina public schools, licensed child care centers, and licensed family child care homes. Participation allows facilities to meet all rule requirements for identified lead and asbestos hazards, as required by law. Rules 10A NCAC 41C .1001 through .1007 require all programs to be free of lead and asbestos hazards. RTI is coordinating all the lead in water, paint and asbestos testing and remediation. There are webinars that child care providers can watch to get instructions. Go to https://www.cleanwaterforuskids.org/en/carolina/ for more information. Currently operating child care facilities are required to test for lead in paint and asbestos once unless the consultant notes a concern during a visit and refers the program to environmental health. All existing licensed programs were to complete the application summary for their program regarding lead paint and asbestos by May 1, 2024. The application is on the following website: https://www.cleanwaterforuskids.org/en/carolina/. The rule also requires all licensed programs to test all drinking water faucets and food preparation sinks for lead contamination once for FCCH’s. If you have not enrolled, I encourage you to do so immediately. The entire home is licensed for child care and must meet the applicable child care requirements. Although you designated space to be used for child care in one room or a section of the home, the license is issued for the entire location. Monitoring visits may include spaces other than those designated for care. REMINDERS Child care licensing requirements are established to ensure a safe and healthy child care environment. It is your responsibility to maintain compliance with all applicable laws and rules. The best way to do so is to periodically review the child care laws and rules. The current rule book dated January 1, 2024, is available at the DCDEE website https://ncchildcare.ncdhhs.gov/. There are also modules reviewing the new Child Care Rules available on Moodle, which can be found on the Division website. I recommend you frequently click the “What’s New” tab to stay informed of all updates on the DCDEE website. Please feel free to contact me at (984) 867-7089 or email at Felicia.faison@dhhs.nc.gov for questions and assistance. If needed my mailing address is PO Box 61161, Raleigh NC 27661. You may also contact Susan Fuller, Licensing Supervisor at (252) 373-9809.
