Staff #1's date of hire was 03/07/2022. The ID in the file was an out of state drivers license issued in Maryland issued in 2021.. There was not an out-of-state central registry background check completed for Maryland. The background check was required by 04/21/2022. 2. Administration verified the date of employment, and that there was not an out-of-state central registry background check completed.
Plan of Correction:	Administration will complete the out-of-state central registry. Administration will send to the Licensing Inspector within 10 business days evidence that the background check has been completed or requested.
Standard #:	8VAC20-780-280-B
Description:	Based on observation, the center failed to ensure that all hazardous materials were kept in a locked location. Evidence: 1. In Classroom #1 there was a container of Clorox wipes and Lysol Spray sitting on a table, and in Classroom #2 there was a container of Clorox wipes on a shelve in the filing cabinet used for supplies. The manufacturer's label reads "keep out of reach of children", and "caution-hazardous to humans and domestic pets." 2. In Classroom #3 there were four containers of shaving cream and one container of snow spray in the cabinet on the bottom shelf in the bathroom. The manufacturer's label stated to "keep out of reach of children."
Plan of Correction:	Administration will review the standard regarding hazardous materials with all staff. The materials will be immediately moved to a locked location.
Standard #:	8VAC20-780-500-A
Description:	Based on observation, the center failed to ensure children washed their hands before meals. Evidence: In Classroom #4 the children washed their hands when they returned from outside play. The children came into the classroom and then sat on the floor while staff prepared the lunch tables and lunch. The children were observed touching the floor, each other, and materials in the classroom. The children moved from the floor to the table to begin lunch. They did not rewash their hands with soap and water or a disposable wipe before eating lunch.
Plan of Correction:	Administration will review with staff the requirements for handwashing and review the schedule of the classroom to assist the staff in finding an appropriate solution. Administration in the future will do spot checks to ensure that handwashing is being completed before and after meals and snacks.
Standard #:	8VAC20-780-560-F
Description:	Based on review of the menu and verification by staff, the center failed to follow the nutritional requirements of a recognized authority such as the the Child and Adult Care Food Program of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Evidence: 1. The afternoon snack for three days did not contain two creditable components. One day contained Jello-O, goldfish and water. Jell-O is not a creditable component and the snack would require one more creditable component. 2. The afternoon snack for two days listed carrot sticks with ranch and juice. One more component was required from a different food group.
Plan of Correction:	Administration will review the requirements with staff who complete the menu, and review the menu each month to ensure all components are creditable and required food groups are served.
