Inspector Notes

An unannounced monitoring inspection was initiated and concluded on 5/24/2022. The inspector was on site from 10:41 am-1:37 pm. There were 176 children present, ranging in ages from 7 weeks to 6 years, with 30 staff supervising. The inspector reviewed compliance in the areas of administration, physical plant, staffing and supervision, programming, medication, special care and emergencies, nutrition and background checks. A total of 10 child records and 10 staff records were reviewed.

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.

Please complete the ?plan of correction? and ?date to be corrected? for each violation cited on the violation notice and return it to me within 5 business days from today. You will need to specify how the deficient practice will be or has been corrected. Just writing the word ?corrected? is not acceptable. Your plan of correction must contain: 1) steps to correct the noncompliance with the standard(s), 2) measures to prevent the noncompliance from occurring again; and 3) person(s) responsible for implementing each step and/or monitoring any preventative measures. Please do not use staff names; list staff by positions only.

Violations

1
Standard 22.1-289.035-A
Based on a review of 10 staff records and interview, the center did not ensure that 1 staff record contained the results of a repeat central registry background check every 5 years as required.

Evidence:
1. The record of staff #2 (DOH: 9/14/2004) contained a central registry dated 4/12/2016.
2. Administration acknowledged that it was the most recent central registry for staff #2 and that the repeat background check had not been requested.
Plan of Correction: Had employee immediately complete new form and mailed 5/24/2022. The date signed looked like 4/12/2018 not 6. Number was hard to make out.
