High risk If a person's background check came back with conditions, their duties must be restricted as the conditions say.
State rule 745.635(3) (licensing rules for every operation): "Background ck determination - If provisionally eligible w/conditions or eligible w/conditions you must restrict duties per conditions/restrictions"
Inspector's note: Observed a caregiver who is provisionally eligible in a classroom alone with 3 children during the follow up inspection. Note: A Caregiver who is eligible with no provisions was added to the room during the inspection.
Corrected while the inspector was there. The inspector gave technical assistance (advice on how to comply).

What the risk levels mean
Texas gives every rule a weight from High to Low, based on the risk to children when it is broken. A citation is one rule found not met at one visit. How to read a Texas inspection report.
- High risk: breaking it can put a child in immediate danger (for example supervision, ratios, safe sleep, background checks, prohibited punishment).
- Medium-high risk: a real safety or health concern, but usually less immediate (for example hazards in a room, missing medical or allergy information, required training).
- Medium risk: important for health and safety over time (for example records, drills, equipment upkeep).
- Medium-low risk: mostly paperwork or reporting that supports safety.
- Low risk: administrative requirements with little direct risk to children.
