Technical Assistance for Violations Cited – Rule References are Located in the Cited Violations *Criminal Background Check Requirements – Item #1805 All seven (7) staff associated with the child care facility must be assigned to the YMCA Weaverville in the ABCMS portal. **New and terminated staff notification requirement: As stated in G.S. 110-90.2 & .2703(r) child care operators are to notify the Division of any new child care providers working who were hired or moved into the child care facility within five business days. The process of notifying the Division has changed and is now captured in ABCMS. This change has been in effect since February 2024. Effective immediately, you will need to obtain a Business NCID and complete Provider Portal training in Moodle at https://www.dcdee.moodle.nc.gov/course/view.php?id=119. Once the training has been completed and access has been given, you must verify your facility roster to ensure current staff are noted on the roster. This information should be updated in ABCMS in an ongoing basis as staff members are hired and when their employment is terminated. This satisfies the requirement to notify the Division of new child care providers working who were hired or moved into the child care facility within five business days. Please note, the hard copy of the Change of Information form will no longer be needed or accepted. Should you need assistance please contact the Criminal Background Check Unit at (919) 814-6401 and someone will assist you. *Staff Medical and TB Test/Screening - Items #1032 and #1033 To achieve compliance, the staff must have a staff medical report and a TB test/screening.

This should be completed immediately upon hiring or at the latest, by the end of the six-week orientation process.
