Inspector Notes

An unannounced inspection was initiated on 06/24/2024 and completed on 07/17/2024 in response to complaints received by the licensing office on 04/25/2024 and 05/13/2024 relating to allegations in the areas of staff-to-child ratio, supervision of children, reporting of suspected child abuse and ensuring all areas of the previses are free of obvious injury hazards.

The inspection included:
*Document review - written policies and procedures;
*Tour of the facility and outdoor play area:
*Interviews with staff;
*Observations.

The preponderance of evidence gathered during the investigation supports the allegation in the area of obvious injury hazards and this part of the complaint is found to be valid. A violation of 22.1-(14.1)-289.031-B-5 is documented on the violation notice issued to the program.

The preponderance of evidence gathered during the investigation does not support the allegations in the areas of staff-to-child ratio, supervision of children and reporting of child abuse therefore, these allegations are determined to be not valid.
