Areas and furnishings of the family day home, inside and outside, shall be maintained in a clean, safe, and operable condition.

The outdoor play structure was missing multiple bolts. Two out of three bolts were missing at the top of the slide, making it unstable. Four bolts were missing at the top of the play structure and one bolt was missing at the base of the structure.
Plan of Correction: A qualified and experienced individual in structural maintenance is currently working on the repairs. The missing screws are being replaced and the entire structure is being carefully inspected to ensure it is safe, stable, and in proper working condition before children are allowed to use it.
Standard 8VAC20-800-800-A
The family day home shall have a written emergency preparedness and response plan that includes emergency evacuation, relocation, and shelter-in-place procedures. The plan should address scenarios to include fire, severe weather and flooding, loss of utilities, and includes provisions for a person who is 18 years of age to provide emergency care.

The family day home had the evacuation and shelter-in-place log for practice drills, but did not have a written emergency preparedness and response plan.

The written EPP has now been fully developed and completed in accordance with the model provided by the inspector. The document includes and covers all required scenarios.
