Inspector Notes

A Subsidy Health and Safety Inspection was initiated on Thursday, June 13, 2024, and concluded on Friday, June 14, 2024. On June 13, the inspector was on site from 9:15am to approximately 10:28am. During the inspection, there were a total of 13 children in care, totaling 20 points, in the direct care of two caregivers. Upon arrival, the children were observed in their designated areas of the family day home. The children were finishing up breakfast and were in two different groups doing a group activity. Later, the children were observed during circle time. The caregivers were observed having positive interactions with the children in care. All areas used for childcare were inspected. The family day home has age and stage appropriate materials and supplies. The first aid kit and non-emergency supplies were inspected and found complete. Medication is administered and medications and authorizations were reviewed. Three caregivers' records and five children's records were reviewed. Additional documentation was submitted electronically on June 14, 2024.

A licensing inspection was also conducted on this date. Both inspections combined cover subsidy health and safety regulations. Only subsidy requirements that are not covered in licensing standards were reviewed during this supplemental inspection. 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.

Violations

1
Standard 8VAC20-790-180-B
Based on a review of documentation, observations, and interviews, the vendor did not maintain a written hard copy record of daily attendance that documents the arrival and departure of each child in care as it occurs.

Evidence: On June 13, 2024, the inspector observed 13 children in care at approximately 9:15am. The daily attendance record reviewed only indicated 11 children were in care. During interview, Caregiver #1 confirmed the daily attendance record for June 13 did not document the arrival and departure of each child in care as it occurred.
Plan of Correction: Moving forward, the provider will ensure all children are checked in, including the time of their arrival and departure, to ensure compliance. Parents will be reminded to check each child in and the provider will double check throughout the day.
