| Findings: Upon inspection of the bathroom, the Licensing Specialist noted that the water temperature got very hot after the water ran for a few minutes. The Licensing Specialist's thermometer reading was at 132 degrees Fahrenheit. The provider stated that the water only gets uncomfortably hot if it has been running for 5 minutes and that she supervises the children while they are in the bathroom to avoid any instances where the water would be running for an extended amount of time. Please make sure the hot water temperature does not exceed 120 degrees Fahrenheit and forward written corrective action within 30 days of this inspection. | |||
