Comments:

A Subsidy Health and Safety Inspection was initiated on Wednesday, May 31, 2023 and concluded on Tuesday, June 6, 2023. On May 31, the inspector was on site from 4:00pm to approximately 5:15pm. There was a total of 43 children in care in the direct care of five staff members. The center?s program director assisted the inspector throughout the inspection. Upon the inspector's arrival, the children were observed in their designated groups finishing up a snack. The children and staff were engaged in various activities. They were later observed transitioning to the gym and playground. The center is equipped with age-appropriate materials and equipment for the children's use. Staff were engaged with the children and offered guidance when needed. The areas where children receive care were inspected and found in compliance. The required postings were observed. Medication is administered when needed and medications were reviewed. During the inspection, five children's records and six staff records were reviewed. Additional documentation was submitted electronically on June 1 and June 6, 2023. A licensing inspection was also conducted on this date.

Violations:

Standard #:	8VAC20-790-600-F
Description:	Based on a review of six staff records and interview, the vendor did not ensure one staff who works directly with children completed the department's health and safety update course annually. Evidence: 1) The record of Staff #6 (DOE: 04/21/21) did not have any documentation of the staff completing the department's health and safety update course. 2) The center was unable to locate documentation to show the staff member completed the course. The department's health and safety update course should be completed annually.
Plan of Correction:	Per the Center: "We will ensure staff complete this training."
