Comments:

An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted on 2/6/20 from 11:50am until 2:15pm. At the time of the tour, there were 9 children in care with 4 staff. A sample of 5 children's records and 4 staff records were reviewed. Children were observed resting quietly during nap time and eating snack. The center currently has no children in care who require medication administration. Transportation, first and and emergency supplies, the emergency preparedness plan, documentation of emergency practice drills, children's injury reports and center postings were reviewed. Five violations in the areas of administration, physical plant and special care provisions and emergencies are identified on the violation notice and were discussed with the center director during the exit interview.

Violations:

The record for child 1 does not contain the addresses of two designated people to call in an emergency if a parent cannot be reached. 2. The records for child 2 and child 3 do not contain all of the written agreements between the parent and the center as required by 22 VAC 40-185-90. 3. The center director confirmed that the records for child 1, child 2 and child 3 do not contain all the required information.

Standard #:	22VAC40-185-270-A
Description:	Based on observation, the center did not ensure that areas and equipment of the center, inside and outside, shall be maintained in a clean, safe and operable condition. Evidence: 1. In the school-age classroom, there is a 6 inch hole in the drywall located near the fuse box on the back wall and a 1 inch hole in the drywall on the adjacent wall. 2. In the school-age boy's bathroom, there is paneling with exposed crumbling drywall in the bathroom stall. 3.

Standard #:	22VAC40-185-500-B
Description:	Based on observation and interview, the center did not ensure that disposable diapers shall be disposed in a leakproof or plastic-lined storage system that is either foot operated or used in such a way that neither the staff member's hand nor the soiled diaper touches an exterior surface of the storage system during disposal. Evidence: 1. The foot operated trash can used to dispose of soiled disposable diapers in the preschool classroom was not working; therefore, staff have to lift the lid of the bin with their hands in order to dispose of soiled diapers. 2. The center director confirmed that the foot operated trash can was broken and that staff had been lifting the lid with their hands to dispose of soiled diapers.
Plan of Correction:	The center responded with the following: A new foot operated trash can has been ordered.

Standard #:	22VAC40-185-550-E
Description:	Based on a review of the emergency drill log and interview, it was determined the center did not maintain a record of the dates of the practice drills for one year. Evidence: 1. There were no emergency evacuation drills documented for December 2019 or January 2020. 2. The center director stated that evacuation drills were completed in December 2019 and January 2020 but were not documented in the drill log.
