Violations

Standard 8VAC20-780-60-A-8
(Repeat) Based on record review and staff interview the center did not ensure they had 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 director confirmed that Child #5 (start date 9/6/2022) did not have documentation of a written care plan that included the food to which the child has a confirmed food allergy.
Plan of Correction: Parent filled out the written care plan from the doctor. Going forward, we will use licensing forms instead of the doctor's action plan to ensure we have all required info.
