The Oregon DHS Child Care Provider form serves as a crucial tool in the engagement between child care providers, parents seeking child care, and the Oregon Department of Human Services (ODHS). This comprehensive form guides providers through the process of registering with ODHS, detailing steps for both licensed and license-exempt care providers. Importantly, it reminds providers about the necessity of adhering to health and safety training, including first aid and CPR certifications, and for those not related to all children in their care, the importance of water quality testing for lead. The form also outlines how to submit the necessary documentation to ODHS and highlights the significant role of the Child Care Resource and Referral (CCR&R) office in assisting with form completion and training arrangements. Notably, the document introduces providers to various scenarios that might affect their licensure requirements, offering a pathway to ensure that all providers meet the health and safety standards mandated by ODHS and OCC (Office of Child Care). Beyond the immediate procedural instructions, the form encapsulates a broader commitment to maintaining high standards in child care, underscoring the importance of background checks and ongoing communication with ODHS regarding any changes in the provider’s status or the care environment. Such detailed guidelines not only aim to streamline the administrative aspect of child care provision but also to elevate the quality and safety of child care across Oregon.

O Criminal and child protective service records checks are required for the provider, any member of the household who is age 16 or older, and any visitors to the home who may have unsupervised access to a child in care. A visitor is someone who may spend time at the provider’s home during the time child care is provided but does not live in the home. This is likely when the provider needs to visit another area of the home (bathroom, bedrooms, kitchen), leaving the visitor an opportunity for unsupervised access to children.
O In facilities exempt from licensing, the site director and everyone who works in the facility who will have access to the children in care need criminal and child protective service records checks. This includes employees, substitute caregivers, staff and volunteers who may have an opportunity for unsupervised access to children.
Persons who have lived in the state for less than five years will require additional child welfare, sex offender and criminal interstate checks.

27. Background checks
This form will be returned as incomplete if there is any missing information.
Providers who are licensed with OCC do not need to answer this section.
Who must complete and sign this section
•Provider
•All household members (age 16 or older). This includes the parent of the child for whom you are providing care if you live together
Note: If you provide care in the child’s home and you live somewhere else, only you, the provider, must complete and sign this question (section 27).
•Substitute or
•Any visitors who may have unsupervised access to a child in care
Unsupervised access applies to most visitors in the provider’s home during child care hours. A visitor is likely to have an opportunity for unsupervised access to children in care when the provider needs to visit another area of the home (bathroom, kitchen or other areas where children nap).
•Facilities that are exempt from licensing — the facility site director and staff, as well as visitors and volunteers with an opportunity for unsupervised access to children, under regulation ORS 329A.250, are subject to criminal and child protective service records checks.
I understand that:
•Each person must pass a criminal history and abuse history check
•Providers must make sure that everyone required to sign the form provides complete and accurate information
•I and any listed individuals must disclose history of:
O All arrests, charges, adjudications and convictions
O Allegations of abuse or neglect and any involvement with child or adult protective services in any state, territory or country at any time
•I and any listed individual must report any new criminal history or abuse history to DPU within five days (see section 26 for more information)
•I will be in failed status for not meeting eligibility if the listing form does not include a required person, or if anyone on the listing form does not provide complete information regarding criminal history (arrests, charges and/or convictions) and child/adult protective service history. If this occurs, I will not be eligible for payment and may incur an overpayment.
The signatures of the listed individuals and myself authorize the Background Check Unit (BCU), ODHS, the state court system and other agencies to:
•Disclose information and communicate it only to determine and review eligibility as an ODHS provider
•Process these background checks and request and receive any juvenile, police, court or investigation reports needed
(In the event the agency discovers potentially disqualifying abuse, I may receive more information at the address or email I have given.)
Page 10 of 12 |
DHS 7494 (04/2021) recycle prior versions |
•Release information given in this background check request or position information to any criminal justice agency or investigative body as needed for investigation, outstanding warrants or supervision requirements
•Release and receive any abuse and neglect information, provider enrollment records and any other required information between provider enrollment units of ODHS and Oregon Health Authority (OHA)
•Release and receive any abuse and neglect information, provider certification or licensing records, and any other required information between ODHS and the Office of Child Care.
I understand the background check on myself or any listed individuals may be repeated while I remain an active, failed or suspended provider.
I understand that a
•An Oregon criminal records check
•A
•An Oregon abuse history check
•An abuse history check for all states in which the listed individual lived within the last five years
•Persons who have lived in the state for less than five years, which requires additional child welfare, sex offender and criminal interstate checks
•Court records, juvenile records, police investigations, abuse investigations and other documentation as needed to complete the fitness determination.
