Description:
Based on review of medication policy and classroom observation, the operational responsibilities of the licensee did not ensure that the center's activities and services are maintained in compliance with the center's own policies and procedures that are required by these standards.
Evidence: 1. The center did not follow their policy for Medication Administration located in the Pre-K Faculty and Staff Handbook. The handbook states, "Within one week after expiration of the effective date on the order or on the last day of school, the parent/guardian must personally collect any unused portions of the medication. Medications not claimed within that period will be destroyed." 2. In Classroom #2 there was an epi-pen that expired in December 2019. 3. Staff verified that the Epi-Pen had expired in December 2019.
Plan of Correction:
Staff will contact the parent today and request a new Epi-Pen be brought in immediately. The staff will post expiration dates of medications in their classroom that teachers can easily access to check expiration dates of the medications.
