Findings: The provider has another grandchild residing in the home who was born in March 2023. The provider did obtain a medical report for the grandchild and a copy was provided to the licensing specialist.

2022-12-12 Full 13A.15.03.02A Corrected
Findings: The provider was unable to locate the health inventory (includes individual needs and lead) for BC. BC did have immunizations on file but they need to be updated to show the current immunizations for her age. JL needs documentation of his MMR/varicella vaccinations as these were not on his immunization record.
2022-12-12 Full 13A.15.03.03B Corrected
Findings: The provider will ensure that attendance is maintained on a daily basis for all children enrolled. Current attendance (Nov/Dec) was not available for viewing.
2022-12-12 Full 13A.15.03.03E Corrected
Findings: The children in care need documentation of the consumer pamphlet in their file or proof the parents were told how to obtain the document. A copy of the consumer pamphlet was given to the provider to copy and give to the parents.

2022-12-12 Full 13A.15.05.04B(2) Corrected

Findings: The kitchen and dining area are specified as off-limits on the provider's registration. The barrier for that area was not in place at the time of the inspection. There were disinfectant sprays on the counter and drawers without fronts open to the children. The provider must ensure these items are kept inaccessible to the children and that the barrier to the dining/kitchen area is in place whenever children are in care. The children do have to go through this area to use the bathroom and should always be supervised by the provider when going to the bathroom.
