SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

    Authority:  38 CFR 17.63.

    Title: Community Residential Care Recordkeeping Requirements.
    OMB Control Number: 2900-0491.
    Type of Review: Reinstatement of a currently approved collection.
    Abstract: One of the standards a CRC must meet is the requirement 
that the CRC must maintain records on each resident in a secure place. 
Facility records must include emergency notification procedures and a 
copy of all signed agreements with the resident. 38 CFR 17.63(i). These 
records must be maintained by the CRC, and review and the CRC must make 
those records available for VA inspection upon request. A Medical 
Foster Home is a subtype of CRC and is required to comply with the 
record keeping requirements of 38 CFR 17.63(i). See 38 CFR 17.74(q). In 
addition, the CRC must maintain and make available upon request of the 
approving official, records related to CRC staff requirements, and 
provide that the CRC must have sufficient, qualified staff must be on 
duty and available to care for the resident and ensure the health and 
safety of each resident.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid OMB control number. The Federal Register Notice with a 
60-day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of 
information was published at 82 FR 27332 on June 14, 2017 page 27332.
