The Inspector emailed the director a list of items required to complete the inspection. The Inspector reviewed 3 children?s records and 3 staff records submitted by the facility to ensure documentation was complete.

Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliances with applicable standards or law and violations were documented on the violation notice issued to the facility.

Standard #: 22VAC40-185-70-A

Evidence: 1. There was no documentation of fire drills being practiced in May and June 2020.

Plan of Correction: Per the provider: Appeal. The state of Virginia was in Phase I and Phase II during the Covid-19 pandemic. We remained in these Phases from March through June. I interpreted the information that was received from the VADSS to imply no fire drills. I felt the drills would put my children and staff in danger. I truly believe that everyone's safety should be my main priority. Thank you for reviewing my appeal.

Evidence: 1. The record of Staff #3 (DOH 09/16/19) contained documentation of fingerprints dated 10/04/19.

Plan of Correction: Make sure have fingerprint results prior to hiring an employee. I thought I could have 30 days.
