Child Care Certification Policy Manual
In WISCCRS, enter a brief description of the violated rule. This field is used to give the operator / public more detailed information about the violation. Everything entered into the violation description field in WISCCRS will be viewable by the public, so do not enter any confidential information, such as children’s names, into this field.
Clearly identify the situation that led to the violation:
Succinctly describe the rule violation – how the rule was violated;
While maintaining confidentiality, include information on Who, What, When, Where and How the rule was violated.
Avoid jargon, acronyms and other language that the parents and the public won’t understand.
Be objective, factual and descriptive.
Do not include derogatory comments or subjective observations such as, “The provider showed a lack of good judgment.”
Maintain confidentiality.
Once recorded in WISCCRS, the violations are automatically entered into a pre-filled Noncompliance Statement, when the non-compliance (294) issue date is entered. Violations will go to the public search website one week later if the non-compliance (294) issue date is not entered. The monitoring results will remain on the public website for three years.
