Technical Assistance:

Shelter in place and escape drills can be done on the same day but not at the same time as they are two very different processes. If you choose to do them the same day they must be documented separately. Please remind staff to continue to be vigilant in making sure children are not walking around while eating or drinking. As you are in the process of changing around the classrooms, please remember that you must have a designated diapering changing table or countertop for children younger than 3 year of age. Your current system of medication compliance and oversight is not sufficient to ensure medication compliance to include awareness of expired medication and obtaining up to date authorizations. Your posted allergy list must also include sensitivities and dietary restrictions.

Comments:

An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted today with the Administrator from 9:30 am to 12:35 pm. Twenty children were present in 4 classrooms with 4 staff providing supervision. The Inspector was able to observe or review standards in the areas of administration, staff qualifications and training, physical plant, staffing and supervision, programs, special care provisions and emergencies and special services. A sample size of five injury/accident reports were reviewed as well as medications for two children. Five children and five staff files were reviewed during this inspection. The playground was not inspected today due to the inclement weather. The areas of non compliance are outlined on the violation notice.

Violations:

Standard #:	8VAC20-770-60-C-2
Description:	Based on a review of five staff files and an interview with the Administrator, it was determined that one staff did not have a central registry finding on file within 30 days of employment. Evidence: Staff A was hired on 12/27/21 and there was no Central Registry background check on file.
Plan of Correction:	I will locate or resubmit for this background check. I will send Licensing a copy of the background check once it has been completed.
Standard #:	8VAC20-780-40-M
Description:	Based on interview, it was determined that the center did not maintain a current written list of all children's sensitivities, and dietary restrictions. Evidence: Child A and B both were lactose intolerant but this information was not written or kept in the classroom.
Plan of Correction:	We will revise our allergy list to include dietary restrictions and sensitivities.
Standard #:	8VAC20-780-240-C
Description:	Based on a review of staff files and interview with the Administrator, it was determined that orientation training for two staff did not address all of the required topics. Evidence: Orientation for staff A ( hired 12/27/21) and staff B ( hired 7/19/22) did not contain topic areas to include all components of emergency preparedness and response planning, prevention of sudden infant death syndrome and use of safe sleep practices, prevention of shaken baby syndrome and abusive head trauma, prevention and response to emergencies due to allergic reactions and prevention and control of disease.
Plan of Correction:	We will retrain staff to include these additions.
Standard #:	8VAC20-780-500-B
Description:	Based on observation and interview, it was determined that an diapering area was not a nonabsorbent surface; and children younger than three years are not being changed on a changing table or counter top designated for changing. Evidence: Interviews revealed that children in the 2/3 year old classroom are not being changed on a designated changing area but are taken to the bathroom and changed while they are standing up. In the toddler classroom, the Licensing Inspector observed rips in the diapering pad, which results in an absorbent surface.
Plan of Correction:	We will change the diaper pad and retrain all staff about the need to use a designated diapering counter top for children 2 and younger.
Standard #:	8VAC20-780-510-E
Description:	Based on a review of the medication and interview with Administrative staff, it was determined that the center's procedures for administering medication did not include a physician authorization or a renewed authorization from the parent after 10 work days. Evidence: The Inhalation Aerosol for child C was not renewed every 10 work days by the parent, who last signed the authorization form on 5/3/22, nor was their a physician authorization.
Plan of Correction:	We will obtain up to date authorization.
Standard #:	8VAC20-780-510-I
Description:	Based on a review of the medication at the center and an interview with the Administrator, it was determined that the center failed to obtain written authorization form the parent for a prescription medication. Evidence: The center failed to obtain parental authorization to administer the medication Epinephrine for child D.
Plan of Correction:	We will obtain authorization for this medication.
