Comments:
A monitoring inspection was initiated on 3/2/2023 and concluded on 3/2/2023. There were a total of 2 children ( 6 points) observed with 1 caregiver present. The children were coming back from the park upon the inspectors arrival. The home, 2 child records, 1 caregiver record, evacuation drills, attendance and emergency supplies were inspected. The provider stated she has never been informed about having a carbon monoxide detector but will purchase one immediately. The provider also stated that she does not use the mesh sided crib for any of the children, one child uses a cot the other sleeps in the crib where all the toys are stored. The inspector observed a towel rack that was broken off from the wall and the metal towel bars were laying on the bathroom floor. This was absently not discussed with the provider so not cited but the provider will repair the towel bars in the bathroom immediately.
