Inspection Date Reason Description Status
2026-06-12 Allocated Unannounced Monitoring Allocated Unannounced Monitoring Compliant - Finalized
2025-10-06 Renewal 3270.32(a) - Comply with CPSL Compliant - Finalized

Regulation: 3270.32(a)

Description: Comply with CPSL

Noncompliance Area: The record for staff person #1 contained clearances and mandated reporter training that have not been renewed every 60 months. This is evidenced by the PSP clearance dated 6/3/2020, Child Abuse clearance dated 5/19/2020, DHS FBI clearance dated 4/22/2020 , the NSOR verification dated 5/6/2020 and mandated reporter dated 5/22/2020. Staff person #1 was observed to be in direct contact and having routine interaction with children on 10/6/2025.

Correction Required: The operator shall comply with the CPSL and with Chapter 3490 (relating to protective services). Staff person #1 may not work in a child care position until all clearances have been renewed and the results are on file at the facility.

Provider Response: (Contact the State Licensing Office for more information.)
Staff person #1 will not work in a child care position until all clearances have been renewed and the results are on file at the facility. LHNS has awareness to every 5 years and was in process of all above. We missed "exact date vs every 5 years." All above were in process with appts. All employee files will now record the month and date in the month, also with the year (as we previously followed), to ensure not one day passes the "60 month" of clearances and mandated reporter (not " 5 years" . This will include FBI DHS prints, state police, child abuse , NSOR and the mandated reporter training. All employees will complete prior to contact with children for renewals and new hires, to comply with CPSL and Chapter 3490.

Regulation: 3270.95(a)/3270.95(b)

Description: Devices must be compliant/Director or designated staff person ensure compliance

Noncompliance Area: The Director or designated staff person who is responsible for compliance with this chapter did not ensure the requirements under section 1016(c) of the act (62 P.S. § 1016(c)) are met. This is evidenced by manual testing of the fire detection system being conducted on March 11, 2025 and not again until April 28, 2025 (48 days), which exceeds the requirement that manual testing occurs at least every 30 days.

Correction Required: Fire detection devices or systems must be in compliance with standards established under section 1016(c) of the act (62 P.S. § 1016(c)). The Director or designated staff person who is responsible for compliance with this chapter shall ensure the requirements under subsection (a) are met.

Provider Response: (Contact the State Licensing Office for more information.)
The director will be more careful to watch the exact day of the month and not "each month" to ensure no more than 30 days pass for the manual fire system test. This will ensure the requirements under subsection (a) are met and the compliance with section 1016(c) of the act (62 P.S. § 1016(c)) are met.
