SUMMARY:LPA Ready: Your Playbook for Navigating Annual Inspections & the CARE Tool
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Carla Fernandes-Goes\, Child Care Advocate from the Community Care Licensing Division  \nAre you ready for your annual inspection? This essential workshop is designed to empower Family Child Care Home (FCCH) providers with the knowledge and tools to navigate the Title 22 inspection process with confidence. \nThe CARE (Compliance and Regulatory Enforcement) Tool is a checklist used by LPAs during inspections. It is designed to ensure that inspections are consistent and thorough across the state. The tool focuses on key health and safety regulations. While the CARE tool doesn’t cover every single regulation\, it highlights the most critical ones. \nWe will demystify the requirements and provide practical strategies to help you “ace” your next visit from Community Care Licensing. You will leave this workshop with a clear action plan\, valuable resources\, and the peace of mind that comes from being thoroughly prepared for a successful annual inspection. \nRegister Here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/cuwt4DQMQaq5tNj8vSvFPg
