Evidence: 1. While touring the facility, the two year old classroom no longer had a changing table. 2. Staff #4 was asked where the changing table was located, and stated that it was not relocated to the space when rooms were switched at the end of the summer. She was then asked to demonstrate diapering procedures. After attempting to use the toilet, the child stands outside the stall to complete the diaper or pull up change. If necessary, the child is placed on the lap of Staff #4 to complete the diaper change. 3. The director confirmed that the changing table was not used in the previous room, so was not relocated. 4. After reviewing the standards regarding diapering and discussing the allowable variance process, the director requested an application.
