Based on interview, the center failed to ensure that when children are on the outdoor play area, at least 75 square feet of space per child is provided.
Evidence:
1. Staff #2, Staff #3 and Staff #4 confirmed that a small portable fence had been used to contain Child #1 during outside play time.
2. Staff #2 stated that the fence had been used for Child #1 regularly until ?about a week and a half ago?.
3. The area that the portable fence provided was measured and determined to be 16 square feet. Staff #2 confirmed that the 16 square foot area was the space that was previously provided for Child #1 during outside play time.Plan of Correction: The center immediately stopped using the portable outside fencing. The center is thinking through alternative fencing options to provide for our students that are within the appropriate square footage range.
