63.2 Child Abuse & Neglect

Technical Assistance:
1. Please vary the time of day you conduct the monthly escape drills;

2. Carefully inspection the playground fence/gate to make sure all screws/bolts that are protruding more than 2 threads are cut. If the bolts are cut , make sure the edges are not sharp as that will present a separate hazard;
3. Consultation provided on the storage of cleaning agents in the kitchen;

4. Monitor closely the mulch on the older playground to make sure that is maintains its resiliency. Once the mulch starts to break down, becomes compact and turns to dirt, it is no longer considered a resilient surface.

Once the mulch starts to decompose to dirt, then you will need to remove the dirt and add new mulch under and around all fall zones.

Comments:
An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted with the new director, who was present with 37 children with 7 staff providing supervision. The inspection took place from 12:05 to 2:10 pm with additional record information provided later in the day.

The infants were awake and active during the walkthrough; however, most of the older children were on their cots for naptime. Staff reported that the children were provided turkey and cheese sandwiches, green beans, pear and milk for their lunch.

A sample size of 8 injuries/accident were reviewed as well as medications for 6 children. Five children and four staff files were reviewed today as well. The most recent fire inspection is dated 2/23/22 and the health inspection is dated 2/28/22.

The area of non-compliance is outlined on the violation notice.

Violations:
Standard #: 8VAC20-780-60-A-8
Description: Based on a review of children's files and interview with the director, it was determined that one child with diagnosed food allergies did not have a written care plan from a physician regarding the foods the child is allergic and the steps to be taken in the event of a suspected or confirmed allergic reaction.
Evidence:
Child A's diagnosed food allergies are walnuts, cashews and almonds. There was no written care plan on file.

Plan of Correction: I will obtain a written care plan from the child's physician.
