The licensing inspector conducted an unannounced complaint inspection in response to a complaint that was received by the licensing department on January 23, 2020 regarding physical plant and nutrition. In addition to the initial complaint, the department received complaints regarding ratios, physical plant and nutrition on January 24, 2020 and January 27, 2020. The inspection was initiated on January 29, 2020 and completed on February 5, 2020. On February 5, 2020, the inspector was on site from 9:05am to 11:15am. Interviews with staff were completed, observations were made in the center, and documentation was reviewed.
The preponderance of the evidence gathered during the investigation does not support the allegation; therefore, the complaint is determined to be not valid. Though not a part of the original complaint, there were violations found during the inspection regarding hazardous substances and infant care. See the violation notice for more details.
If you have any questions about this inspection, please contact the licensing inspector at (804) 662-9038.
Please complete the ?plan of correction? and ?date to be corrected? for each violation cited on the violation notice and return it to me within 5 business days from today.

Your plan of correction should contain: 1) steps to correct the noncompliance with the standard(s), 2) measures to prevent the noncompliance from occurring again; and 3) person(s) responsible for implementing each step and/or monitoring any preventative measures.
