Comments:
An unannounced renewal inspection was conducted today between 11:05am and 12:30pm. There were 11 children present with the Provider and 1 assistant for a total of 29 points within the supervision guidelines. The children were observed playing freely, watching a Disney movie, washing hands and eating lunch (macaroni and cheese, green beans, grapes and milk). A complete inspection of the physical plant, children and staff records, fire drill log, attendance and emergency procedures were observed during this inspection. The provider is not trained to administer medication and confirmed that there were no medications kept on site. Violations were found during today?s inspection and can be viewed on the Violation Notice.

Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions, please e-mail me at whitney.mcgrath@ doe.virginia.gov.

Description: Based on record review, the family day home did not obtain documentation of additional immunizations every six months for children under two years old.
Evidence:
1. Child #1 (14 months) most recent immunizations are dated from when the child was 2 months old.
2. Child #5 (15 months) most recent immunizations are dated from when the child was 4 months old.

Plan of Correction: I will talk to the parents today and request the updated records.

Standard #: 8VAC20-800-180-A
Description: Based on record review, the provider did not obtain a subsequent tuberculosis (TB) screening for each household member every two years.
Evidence: Household member #2's most recent TB screening is dated 12/3/2020.

Plan of Correction: I will ask them to get it done if it hasn't been done already.

Standard #: 8VAC20-800-210-A
Description: Based on record review and interview, caregivers did not obtained a minimum of 16 clock hours of training annually in areas relevant to their job responsibilities.
Evidence: Caregiver #1 and Caregiver #2 have documentation of 12.5 hours of training completed in 2022. Caregivers confirmed that they did not obtain 16 hours.
