| Inspection Date | Reason | Description | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-06-09 | Allocated Unannounced Monitoring | 3270.31(f) - Health and Safety Training | Compliant - Finalized |
|
Regulation: 3270.31(f) Description: Health and Safety Training Noncompliance Area: Staff person # 1 has not completed the following required pre- service training within 90 days of their date of hire (see LIS code sheet): Pediatric CPR/First Aid. Correction Required: Staff persons shall complete professional development within 90 days of hire as listed in subsections (f)1-10 or (g)1-10. Until such time as the required training has been completed, staff person # 1 must be supervised, when interacting with children at a minimum by, an AGS who has completed all preservice trainings and has all qualifications to care for children unsupervised. If there are no staff person(s) available to supervise staff person # 1, staff person # 1 may not work in a child-care position at the facility |
|||
|
Provider Response: (Contact the State Licensing Office for more information.) Staff Person #1 completed the required Pediatric CPR/First Aid training on June 13, 2026. Completion documentation, including the trainer's signature, title, and completion date, is retained in the staff person's file and available for review. Interim compliance: From the date of hire (March 10, 2026) through completion of the training, Staff Person #1 was supervised at all times when interacting with children by an AGS who has completed all pre-service trainings and is qualified to care for children unsupervised. Staff Person #1 was not permitted to work in a child-care position unsupervised at any point prior to completing the required training. Cause: Because PQAS-approved Pediatric First Aid and CPR courses are limited in our region, we cannot always secure training before a staff person's 90-day deadline; our practice in those cases is to suspend the staff person from working with children until training is completed. In this instance, the staff person's 90th day was miscalculated by one day, and the planned suspension was set for June 9 rather than the actual deadline of June 8. The inspection occurred on June 8. |

Regulation: 3270.166(4) Description: Bottles labeled Noncompliance Area: During a complaint investigation on 4/15/24, the operator admitted that on 3/7/23, a now former staff gave the wrong breast milk to child # 1.

|||
|
Provider Response: (Contact the State Licensing Office for more information.) Since this occurrence, several actions have been taken to avoid mistakes in the future. All children in the infant room were given their own, labeled baskets in the refrigerator and the freezer to store formula and breast milk. Parents were reminded to label all bottles and storage containers with their child's names, and labels were provided to the staff for easy relabeling in case the name was rubbed off. In addition, at the time of the incident, we had 8 infants and 4 teachers in the room to reduce the number of infants that each teacher needed to care for. It was determined that this practice made it more difficult and more confusing for proper infant care. We have since dropped the staff to 2-3 adults at a time (which is compliant with PA state regulations.) |
