THIS SYSTEM IS VERY EFFECTIVE AND ASSURES THAT YEARLY EVALUATIONS ARE COMPLETED. WITH PART TIME SUBSTITUTES, THIS SYSTEM WAS NOT AS EFFECTIVE. THAT WAS THE ISSUE WITH THE TWO STAFF IN QUESTION. THEIR HOURS CHANGED REGULARLY. WE HAVE NOW STARTED A SYSTEM THAT ONCE A NEW SUBSTITUTE HAS COMPLETED 500 HOURS OF WORK, THEY WILL RECEIVE THIER FIRST EVALUATION. AFTER THAT, AN EVALUATION WILL BE COMPLETED YEARLY REGARDLESS OF THE NUMBER OF HOURS THE INDIVIDUAL WORKS ANNUALLY. FOR THESE TWO INDIVIDUALS, THEY WERE EVALUATED TODAY AND WILL RECEIVE THEIR NEXT EVALUATION BY OCT. 2019. |

|||
|
Provider Response: (Contact the State Licensing Office for more information.) NAP TIME IS FROM 1-3PM. OUR SYSTEM TO MEET THE REGULATION IS TO HAVE 1 STAFF PERSON IN THE CLASSROOM FROM 1-2 (IF ALL CHILDREN ARE RESTING). AT 2:00 TWO STAFF ARE ASSIGNED TO THE CLASSROOM TO ASSURE WE ARE COMPLIANT WITH THIS REGULATION. ON 12/3, THE DAY OF THE COMPLIANCE VISIT, THERE WAS A SCHEDULING ERROR THAT HAD ONLY ONE STAFF PERSON SCHEDULED IN FROM 2-3. THE STAFF PERSON DID NOT FOLLOW PROTOCOL, WHICH IS TO CONTACT AN ADMINISTRATOR IMMEDIATELY IF THE CLASSROOM IS OUT OF RATIO, INCLUDING AT NAP TIME WHEN CHILDREN ARE BEGINNING TO WAKE UP. OUR CORRECTIVE ACTION IS TO REVIEW THIS POLICY WITH ALL STAFF AT THIER MONTHLY CURRICULUM MEETING, STRESSING HOW CRITICAL THIS IS AT NAP TIME. |
