Or. Admin. Code § 414-360-0150 - [Effective 7/1/2025] Certification Process
(1) A provider must
comply with the conditions of the certification when admitting children,
including, but not limited to, capacity, hours of operation, age range, and
special conditions.
(2) If an
applicant or a provider is also a certified foster care parent, they must
inform CCLD. CCLD may communicate with Oregon Department of Human Services
(ODHS)regarding the child care license.
(3) A provider must allow representatives of
all agencies involved in licensing process to have immediate access to all
areas of the home and premises when child care children are present, including:
(a) Areas deemed inaccessible to children,
including rooms not typically used for child care, second floors and other
structures on the premises;
(b)
Records of children enrolled in the certified family child care, and all
records and reports related to the child care operation regarding compliance
with these rules as required in OAR 414-360-0255; and
(c) All caregivers.
(4) The home may be inspected by the local
fire jurisdiction when local ordinances require a fire life safety survey as
part of a business license or when CCLD determines there is a need to do
so.
(5) If there is a structural or
maintenance problem or remodeling that CCLD determines could present a health
or safety hazard to children, CCLD may request that the provider have the home
inspected by the appropriate authority and the provider shall comply with the
request. The provider must provide CCLD with a copy of the inspection report
from such authority immediately upon receipt.
(6) A certified family child care
certification may be denied, suspended or revoked if the provider has been
removed, denied or suspended from the CBR.
(7) If a complaint alleges that a provider is
not in compliance with these rules, CCLD will conduct an investigation and
assessment as provided in OAR
414-075-0130.
(8) CCLD may conduct unannounced monitoring
visits of a certified family child care at least annually for the purpose of
determining compliance with these rules and terms and conditions of
certification.
(9) In connection
with a monitoring or investigation visit, CCLD may offer technical assistance
when appropriate to assist the provider in complying with these rules and
provide technical assistance when requested by the provider.
(10) Information provided by or on behalf of
the provider to CCLD on applications, in records or reports, or any other
written or verbal communication must be current, complete, and
accurate.
(11) Parental request or
permission to waive any of the rules for the certification of a certified
family child care home does not give a provider permission to do so.
(12) CCLD certification records are open to
the public on request, including findings of complaint investigations. However,
information protected by state or federal law and the names of children and
adults will not be disclosed.
(13)
The name, address, telephone number, and certification status of providers is
public information. However, CCLD may withhold from the public a provider's
address and telephone number if the provider makes a written request
documenting that disclosure of the address and/or telephone number would
endanger them or a family member living in the home (OAR
137-004-0800). The request must
be on a form supplied by CCLD.
