Violations

2
Standard 8VAC20-780-290-A-3
Based on observations and interview, the center did not ensure electrical outlets shall have protective covers.

Evidence:
1. During the inspection, an electrical outlet in the two-year old?s classroom was observed with the protective cover in the open position with the outlet exposed posing a safety hazard to children.
2. Staff acknowledged the teachers in the classroom are responsible for ensuring the sliding outlet covers are closed when they are not in use.
Plan of Correction: Management directed staff to install an electrical outlet cover and/or tape until maintenance arrives to complete repairs. Prior to the visit, management submitted a worker order on 8/5/2024.
Standard 8VAC20-780-60-A
Based on review of children?s records, the center did not ensure each child record contained the name, address and phone number of two designated people to call in an emergency if a parent cannot be reached.

Evidence:
1. The record for child #1 contained only one emergency contact listed in his file and on his emergency card that was not a parent.
2. Staff acknowledged only one emergency was contact listed and obtained an additional emergency contact while inspector was on-site.
Plan of Correction: The correction was resolved on-site to ensure compliance. The parent provided management with an additional emergency contact. Management has implemented a system to double-check all child files to ensure compliance prior to a child's first day of attendance.
