Violations:
Standard #: 8VAC20-770-60-C-2
Description: Repeat Violation

Based on review five staff records; the center did not obtain documentation of the results of a central registry search within 30 days of employment for all staff members.

Evidence:
1. The record for Staff #2 with an employment date of 10/12/22, the results of the Central registry search background check was dated 11/30/22.

2. The record for Staff #4 with an employment date of 09/12/22, the results of the Central registry search background check was dated 10/24/22.

Plan of Correction: It is not repeated; however, we still have the file from the last inspection.

Standard #: 8VAC20-780-40-L
Description: Based on staff interview, the facility failed to inform all staff who work with children of children's allergies, sensitivities, and dietary restrictions.

Evidence: When asked, staff in the Pre-K class and School Age class could state which children in the group had allergies, sensitivities and/or dietary restrictions.

Plan of Correction: We will arrange specific training on this area for all staff, aside from their regular duties.

Standard #: 8VAC20-780-40-M
Description: Repeat Violation

Based on observation and interview, the center did not ensure a current written list of all children's allergies, sensitivities, and dietary restrictions were in each room or area where children are present.

Evidence: When the Pre-K and School Age class were on the playground the Allergy List was located in their classrooms. Staff were unable to identify the children with diagnosed allergies in the group.

Plan of Correction: We currently have the allergy list available in the classrooms. Moving forward, we will also ensure that the staff includes it on the attendance boards so it can be readily accessible wherever they go.

Standard #: 8VAC20-780-60-A-8
Description: Based on review of six medications and their corresponding documents, the center did not obtain a written care plan for each child with a diagnosed food allergy, to include instructions from a physician regarding the food to which the child is allergic and the steps to be taken in the event of a suspected or confirmed allergic reaction.

Evidence: The record for Child #6, with a documented allergy to peanuts and emergency medication on site, did not contain documentation of a written allergy care plan from a physician regarding the steps to be taken in the event of a suspected or confirmed allergic reaction.

Plan of Correction: In addition to the asthma care plan on file, we have requested a food allergy list from this family.

Standard #: 8VAC20-780-210-A
Description: Based on record review and staff interviews, the center did not ensure that all program leaders had documentation of high school program completion or equivalent on file.

Evidence: The record for Staff # 1 did not contain documentation of education required for the job position.

Plan of Correction: Corrected the same day.

Standard #: 8VAC20-780-330-B
Description: Repeat Violation

Based on observation and measurement it was determined that there was insufficient resilient surfacing underneath and surrounding the play equipment.

Evidence: On the big playground there was approximately three inches of mulch at the base of the three slides and the fall zones of the composite play structure and less than two inches of mulch in the fall zones of the dome jungle gym.

Plan of Correction: Immediate Action: Add sufficient mulch to ensure proper depth under all play equipment. We have scheduled an appointment with the landscaping team for mulch.

Standard #: 8VAC20-780-350-B-4
Description: Based on observation, documentation review and interview, the center did not ensure that the ratio of 1:10 (staff: children) was maintained for children from four-years-old up to school age eligibility.

Evidence: A ratio waiver request was granted on 7/3/24 increasing the ratio in the Pre-K room from 1 staff to 10 children to 1 staff to 11 children. On 8/6/24 from approximately 9:40 a.m. to 9:43 a.m., the LI observed 15 Pre-K children, ages four-years-old, on the playground being supervised by one staff member.

Plan of Correction: We will train the teachers call for help in case of an emergency.

Based on review of medication it was determined that the center did not follow procedures regarding expired medication.

Evidence: The emergency medication on site for Child #6 expired on 6/24.
