LPA discussed the new Mandated Reporter Training with applicant. Beginning January 1, 2018, Health and Safety Code 1596.8662 requires all licensed providers, applicants, directors and employees to complete training as specified on their mandated reporter duties and to renew their training every two years. Volunteers are encouraged but not required to take the training. This training requirement may be met by using the Department’s Office of Child Abuse Prevention (OCAP) online training modules. The OCAP modules are free of cost and available at: http://www.mandatedreporterca.com/. The training is currently provided in English. Applicant has a current Mandated Reporter Training Certificate expire on 12/05/2025. Current pediatric CPR and first aid training was verified and expires 01/2026.

On 05/20/2024, the California Attorney General - Megan’s Law website was searched for information on sex offenders required to register with local law enforcement under California's Megan's Law. No registered sex offenders (RSOs) were found at the facility addresses. Under state law, some RSOs are not subject to public disclosure; therefore, they may not have been included in this search. However, the Department conducts a monthly cross reference of each address on record for all RSOs against all Community Care Licensing Division (CCLD) facility addresses pursuant to information shared by California DOJ.

Incidental Medical Services (IMS) policy was discussed. For IMS information see Evaluator Manual - Regulation Interpretations and Procedures for Family Child Care Homes Section 102417.
