Standard #: 8VAC20-780-500-A Description: Based on observation, disposable diapers were not disposed of in a leakproof or plastic-lined storage system that is either foot-operated or used in such a way that neither the staff member's hand nor the soiled diaper touches an exterior surface of the storage system during disposal [8VAC20-780-500.B.5]. Evidence: The trashcan next to the changing station was not covered with a foot-operated system to ensure proper disposal of diapers. Plan of Correction: We will order a new trashcan right away.
Standard #: 8VAC20-780-550-G Description: Based on record review and interview with the director, documentation was not maintained for emergency evacuations. Evidence: Evacuation drill details for 2 out of the last 4 months were not written on the log. Plan of Correction: We did the drills but forgot to write the information on the log. We won't forget moving forward, setting up a monthly reminder.
Standard #: 8VAC20-780-550-P Description: Based on record review, "future action to prevent recurrence of the injury" was not included on the center's injury reports. Evidence: On 3 out of 3 injury reports reviewed, a future action to prevent recurrence of the injury was not listed on the report. Plan of Correction: We will review the standard to make sure all components are included on our injury reports.
