An unannounced renewal inspection was conducted on January 12, 2023 from approximately 1:45 pm to 2:45 pm. The inspector reviewed compliance in the areas of administration, personnel, household members, physical environment and equipment, emergencies, caregiver training, preventing the spread of disease and nutrition. The provider record and 5 children?s records were reviewed. All areas of the home were observed and areas where the children are cared for were inspected. There were 5 children in attendance for a total of 16 points. The children were observed taking a nap while the inspector was on the premises. The first aid kit was inspected and found complete. The menu, emergency numbers, and daily schedule were posted. Evacuation drills were conducted monthly with the most recent on 01/05/2023. The information gathered during the inspection determined violations with applicable standards or law. Violations were issued. Please complete the plan of correction and date to be corrected for each violation cited on the violation notice and return it to me within 5 business days from today, 01/18/2023. Please specify how the deficient practice will be or has been corrected. Your plan of correction should contain: 1) steps to correct the noncompliance with the standard(s), 2) measures to prevent the noncompliance from occurring again, and 3) person(s) responsible for implementing each step and/or monitoring any preventative measure(s).
