Discussed with staff:
1) safe sleep practices ? pacifiers attached to a ribbon are unsafe, and can increase the risk of SUID;
2) diapering procedures and handwashing ? hands that touch gates/handles before being washed, and again after being washed can pick up the germs from the initial contact;
3) please remind staff to care for children first and clean second;
4) allergy care plans should be kept in the classrooms and teachers should become familiar with children?s plan, and
5) maintain evidence of lead teacher qualifications in staff records
