Violations:

Description:	Based on observation and interview, the provider did not ensure medications for household members were kept in a locked place using a safe locking method that prevents access by children. Evidence: 1. A medication box located in the providers bedroom was not locked at the time of the inspection. The medication box contained medications identified by the provider as being for household members. 2. The provider stated the box was not locked as that time.
Plan of Correction:	Per the provider: The box was locked earlier, however I believe my grandchildren removed it. I will return the lock to the medication box today.
