Keep staff credentials and drill logs current for licensing

Track every staff member's background check, CPR, first aid, TB test and training hours, and log your fire, earthquake and lockdown drills, so a licensing visit finds everything in one place.

Who this is for

Center directors and office staff. Visitor Management must be on for your center.

Staff credentials

Step 1 — Open the list

Open your center, select the Manage icon (people) in the toolbar, then the Staff tab, then Staff credentials.

Step 2 — Find what needs attention

Each row sums up a staff member, for example "1 expired · 1 missing · 2 of 10 hours". Use the pills to filter: Needs renewal, Expired, Expiring soon, Missing and Current.

Step 3 — Open a staff member

Tap a row. Credentials and training lists the background check (DCYF / MERIT), fingerprints, CPR, first aid, food handler card, TB test, safe-sleep training and STARS / MERIT ID, each with its expiry date and status. Below are this year's training hours and Add training.

Staff and directors get a notice before a credential expires.

Drills and the emergency roster

Step 1 — Open Emergency and drills

From your center's More menu, under Safety & Wellbeing, select Visitors. In its header, select the asterisk icon to open Emergency and drills.

Step 2 — Who is on site now

On site now counts the children, staff and visitors in the building right now, with a roll call by room. Use it during an evacuation.

Step 3 — Log a drill

1. Open Drill log. Each drill type shows whether you are On schedule and when you last ran one.
2. Select + Record drill. Choose the drill type, date and time, duration, and how many children and staff took part. Bloomz shows who is checked in right now to help. Add a note and select Save.
3. To give licensing a copy, select the download icon, then Export CSV or Export PDF.
