Violations:

Standard #:	22.1-289.031-A-4
Description:	Based on record review, the center did not ensure each person in a supervisory position has been certified by a practicing physician or physician assistant to be free from any disability which would prevent him from caring for children under his supervision. Evidence: 1. The record of staff #4 (employment date: 3/1/2022) did not have documentation showing that they have been certified by a practicing physician or physician assistant to be free from any disability which would prevent him from caring for children under his supervision. 2. The record of staff #5 (employment date: 9/7/2022) did not have documentation showing that they have been certified by a practicing physician or physician assistant to be free from any disability which would prevent him from caring for children under his supervision.
Plan of Correction:	We will get the staff health reports as soon as possible.
Standard #:	22.1-289.031-B-3
Description:	Based on record review and an interview, the center did not ensure to have at least one person on staff that has been trained to conduct daily simple health screenings of children. Evidence: During the inspection of five staff records and an interview with the center representative, it was discovered there were no staff that received training in daily health screenings within the past three years. Religious exempt requirements stipulate that a staff should be able to conduct a daily simple health screening and exclusion of sick children by a person trained to perform such screenings. Daily health screenings should be completed every three years.
Plan of Correction:	We will complete the training as soon as possible.

The center?s administrator confirmed that a carbon monoxide detector is not currently installed in the building.
Plan of Correction:	We will install a carbon monoxide detector by May 2nd.
