Violations

3
Standard 8VAC20-800-280
Based on observations made, potentially poisonous substances were not stored in an area not accessible to the children. Evidence: On both 8/1/24 and 8/6/24 a variety of cleaning supplies and air freshener products were observed in an unlocked cabinet under the sink in the bathroom used by the children.
Plan of Correction: Provider removed all cleaning supplies including air fresheners from the cabinet under the sink in front of the inspector. Provider installed a child proof cabinet lock and will store all supplies in an area that is inaccessible to the children.
Standard 8VAC20-800-60-B
Based on records reviewed, 1 of 2 children's records did not include required information.

Evidence:
The record for Child #2 did not include:

1. There was insufficient medical and developmental information and no accommodation information on-file, and no information about the results of a medical evaluation on 6/27/24 that potentially would have given the provider information to better meet the needs of the child and manage aggressive behaviors reportedly occurring on a regular basis and observed by the inspector on 8/1/24.
2. There was no documentation of the medical insurance policy number. The space was left blank.
3. The emergency medical authorization was not signed by the parent.
4. The parent signed a blank medication policy form.
Plan of Correction: Provider made several attempts to have the parent complete Child #2's paperwork but wasn't successful. Child #2 is no longer enrolled in provider's program due to which the missing info couldn't and wasn't required to be completed. Moving forward, Provider will maintain all paperwork required for each enrolled child. Provider will make sure that all paperwork is up-to date, complete, and signed by parents.
Standard 8VAC20-800-920
Based on records reviewed, the menu for the current one-week period was not posted in the home.

Evidence:

1. For the week of 7/29/24-8/2/24 a menu was written and posted for one day, 8/1/24.
2. For the week of 8/5/24-8/9/24 a menu was written and posted for one day, 8/5/24.
Plan of Correction: Provider wrote menus for all weeks including weeks of 7/29/24 and 8/5/24. Provider was previously keeping an electronic record of menus. Provide will instead plan, write, date and post menus in the home each week making them available to parents at all times.
