The HHS Centralized Background Check Unit is required to do background checks to find out if a person has a criminal history or an abuse and neglect history that might be a risk to the health and safety of children. Background checks are required for Child Care providers, Residential Child Care providers, and Foster and adoptive homes.

Pediatric palliative care is a unique area of practice. Unlike adult palliative care, pediatric palliative care focuses on both quality of life and the developmental stage of the child.
