§416.15(b)(11)(ii)(b): Justice Center register check forms
Among the background check paperwork a program must keep on file are the forms needed to check the Justice Center's register of substantiated category one cases of abuse or neglect. The citation concerns that paperwork, and the public record does not say what was missing.

Reading it on a record

The same one on visit after visit is worth a direct question. Our guide to checking a daycare and methodology explain the rest.
