Inspector Notes

Today an unannounced Monitoring Inspection took place between the hours of 9:40am and 11:40am. There were 3 classrooms and 2 'specials' classes observed with a total of 28 children with 6 staff within the supervision guidelines. The children were observed eating a morning snack, participating in gym class, being read to in the library and other organized activities. A complete inspection of the physical plant, children and staff records, fire drill log, medication and emergency procedures were observed during this inspection. There was an abundant supply of materials for the children. There was an adequate number of staff with current certification in MAT, CPR and First Aid, as well as DHO training. Staff-to-child ratios were in compliance. The center was clean and organized. Violations were found during today?s inspection and can be viewed on the Violation Notice.

Thank you for your cooperation during the inspection. If you have any questions, please e-mail me at whitney.mcgrath@doe.virginia.gov.

Violations

2
Standard 8VAC20-780-40-M
Based on interview, the center did not maintain a current written list of all children's allergies, sensitivities, and dietary restrictions in each room where children are present.
Evidence: The center director confirmed that there was a child in the program that has a diagnosed food allergy. Allergy lists are not posted in the classrooms.
Plan of Correction: I did have a list in the office. I wasn't aware it needed to be in each classroom. I'll copy my list and place a copy in each classroom and have it covered for confidentiality purposes.
Standard 8VAC20-780-560-G
Based on observation and interview, requirements were not met when food is brought from home.
Evidence: Children's lunch boxes were observed sitting on a table in the hallway. None of the lunch boxes were labeled with todays date.
Plan of Correction: I have stickers that we can use to start dating all outside food tomorrow. I'll plan to make laminated tags for each child's lunch bags to make sure full name and current date is documented.
