Inspector Notes

An unannounced renewal inspection was conducted today with administrative staff from 12:30 pm to 2:15 pm. There were thirty-nine children present with nine staff providing supervision. The schoolagers had returned from playing mini golf and had eaten lunch ( chicken nuggets, macaroni noodles, cucumbers, oranges and milk) and were resting in preparation to go outside onto the playground. All the preschoolers were napping during the walkthrough. Two buses were inspected today as well as five staff and children's files. A sample of 8 injuries/accident reports were reviewed as well. There were medications on site for any of the children.
The area of non compliance is outlined on the violation notice.

Violations

1
Standard 8VAC20-780-430-C
Based on observation, it was determined that the play equipment on the playground presented a hazardous protrusion.
Evidence:
On the top and side of the swing bar were protruding bolts more than two threads. These protrusions present impalement and laceration hazards.
Plan of Correction: We will place the swings off limits until we are able to cut the bolts. After cutting the bolts we will file down the edges so that there are no sharp edges.
