| 2020-02-20 | Mandatory Review | 13A.16.10.05A(1) | Corrected |
| Findings: Specialist observed two infants sleeping, one in a baby swing and one in a mammaroo rotating seat at time of inspection. Both children did not have any physician documentation to permit this. Center corrected at time of inspection and will submit a statement of correction to office within 5 working days. | |||
| 2020-02-20 | Mandatory Review | 13A.16.09.02C | Corrected |
| Findings: Center did not post written activity plan for infants or toddlers or assigned staff member for each child for the infants referenced in the space used by the child's group as per regulations. Center did have plans, but they were not posted as required. Center will correct immediately and will submit statement of correction to office within 5 working days. | |||
| 2020-02-20 | Mandatory Review | 13A.16.08.03A | Corrected |
| Findings: Specialist observed four occasions when staff child ratio was not in place. Director left 5 infants in Room 3 with 1 staff member to answer the door when specialist arrived, to put a child's soiled clothing in another location, to quickly get lunch items for classrooms and when a toddler staff member left her classroom of 6 children with one staff member remaining to bring food across the hall to Room 3 during lunch time. Open floor plans do not count as supervision and staff must be present in their designated rooms at all times, or alternate approved supervision provided, to meet the requirement for staff child ratios as applicable for each age group. Center will correct immediately and will submit a plan of correction to office within 5 working days. | |||
| 2020-02-20 | Mandatory Review | 13A.16.08.01A(2)(b) | Corrected |
| Findings: Adequate supervision was not in place when staff members left their classrooms to take care of various items as noted under staff child ratio. Center will correct immediately and will submit plan of correction for the future to ensure proper supervision is in place at all times. Additionally, a plan of action will be submitted within 5 working days as to how adequate supervision of room 4 will take place while a staff member is changing a diaper as the diapering area/room directly off classroom allows some vision of the classroom but not all areas. Specialist will review file and further discuss with supervisor upon return to office. | |||
| 2020-02-20 | Mandatory Review | 13A.16.06.04A(1) | Corrected |
| Findings: A previously unreported staff member who was present today did not have a medical on file. This staff member may not return tomorrow without an approved medical on site and submitted to the office for correction. | |||
| 2020-02-20 | Mandatory Review | 13A.16.05.12E | Corrected |
| Findings: Specialist observed an unstable slide in the front portion of the approved outdoor play area. Director stated that it had been attached to the swing set but had come apart during a storm. Center will remove the slide immediately and use it again only if it can be reattached in a stable and safe manner. Center will submit a letter of correction to office within 5 working days. | |||
| 2020-02-20 | Mandatory Review | 13A.16.05.07C | Corrected |
| Findings: Center was refilling a licensed large water bottle jug and placing it on dispenser for the drinking water source. Director stated that the dispenser has a filter that is maintained by maintenance. Specialist stated that water bottle jug would then not have been cleaned and sanitized between use and should only be used in the original container as per regulations. Center must follow approved drinking water sources as outlined in the regulations. Center will correct immediately and submit statement of correction to office within 5 working days. | |||
| 2020-02-20 | Mandatory Review | 13A.16.04.01B | Corrected |
| Findings: Center has 6 children enrolled and present in room 4, which is approved on current license for 3. Center has up to 10 children enrolled on a given day in room 2, which is approved on current license for 6. The rooms do measure for an increase in capacity, but the center would first need to submit a Change in Facilities form, staffing pattern and any other applicable documentation and receive an updated license prior to increasing enrollment in these rooms. Center submitted documentation at time of inspection and specialist will process and update license. Until updated license is received, beginning tomorrow center must return to capacity in each room as documented on license. | |||
