Comments:

An unannounced renewal inspection was conducted on 12/1/22 from 10:50am to 12:40pm with the Assistant. The Provider returned to the home during the inspection. There were two children in care, a two-years-old and a three-year-old, for a total of four points. Children were observed resting, building with blocks, coloring, washing hands, eating lunch, practicing flashcards with the Assistant, and building with magnet tiles. Five child records, the Provider?s record, and the Assistant?s record were reviewed. The Provider and Assistant have current certification in CPR and First Aid. The Provider does not give medication and understands that they must obtain certification in Medication Administration Training (MAT) in order to do so in the future. Lunch served was sliced turkey sandwiches with lettuce and tomato, applesauce, and milk. The first aid kit, flashlight, weather band radio, and carbon monoxide detector were observed. The emergency drill log, attendance, and menu were also reviewed. If you have questions regarding this inspection, please contact the Licensing Inspector, Laura Brindle, at laura.brindle@doe.virginia.gov or 540-905-2062. Please complete the "Plan of Correction" and "Date to be Corrected" areas on the Violation Notice for each violation cited and return to me by close of business on 12/16/22. Plans of correction should include steps to correct the noncompliance with the standard, and measures to prevent the noncompliance from occurring again.

Violations:

Standard #:	8VAC20-800-830-A
Description:	Based on review of documentation, the family day home did not ensure that emergency evacuation procedures were practiced monthly with all caregivers and children in care during all shifts that children are in care. Evidence: The emergency drill log was reviewed on 12/1/22. There was no documentation of an emergency evacuation drill practiced in March, May, October or November.
Plan of Correction:	I am going to redo my fire drill, lockdown, and weather drill sheets so each are on separate forms for tracking.
Standard #:	8VAC20-800-210-A
Description:	Based on review of documentation, the provider did not ensure that in addition to satisfactory completion of first aid training and CPR training, caregivers obtained a minimum of sixteen clock hours of training annually in areas relevant to their job responsibilities. Evidence: The provider reported that they were unsure how many hours of training had been completed by the Assistant or themself for the year and they needed to reach out to a trainer for certificates. No certificates were submitted by the close of the inspection.
Plan of Correction:	I am going to better organize my papers and put them in my book so I'm not looking for everything and retake missing classes along with new training classes for the upcoming year.
