Comments:
A Subsidy Health and Safety Inspection was conducted on Monday, May 22, 2023. The inspector was on site from 9:35am to approximately 1:00pm. There were a total of 21 children in care in the direct care of four staff members. The center's director assisted the inspector throughout the inspection. Upon the inspector's arrival, the children were observed cleaning up after eating breakfast. The children and staff were later engaged in various activities. The children were observed during transitions, during free-play, and teacher-led activities. The center is equipped with age appropriate materials and equipment for the children's use. Staff were engaged with the children and offered guidance when needed. The areas where children receive care were inspected and found to be in compliance. The required postings were observed. Per the director, medication is not administered and transportation is not provided at this time. During the inspection, five children's records and five staff records were reviewed.

A licensing inspection was also conducted on these dates. Both inspections combined cover subsidy health and safety regulations. Only subsidy requirements that are not covered in licensing standards were reviewed during this supplemental inspection. Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliance with applicable standards or law and violations were documented on the violation notice issued to the program.

Violations:
Standard #: 8VAC20-790-600-F
Description: Based on a review of five staff records and interview, the vendor did not ensure one staff member who works directly with children completed the department's health and safety update course annually.

Evidence: 1) The most recent health and safety update course in the record of Staff #5, employed on 04/12/22, was completed on 11/09/21. The health and safety update course should have been completed no later than 04/12/23.

2) During interview, a member of management confirmed Staff #5 did not complete the training annually as required.

Plan of Correction: Staff #5 will complete the missing training. Moving forward, staff will complete the department's health and safety update training annually.
