The physical plant, 5 staff records, 5 children?s records, medications, evacuation drills, emergency supplies, and policies were inspected. Children were observed participating in group play, reading books, playing with small manipulative toys, learning letters, playing outside, and eating snack. Diapering and hand-washing procedures were also observed. There was an adequate supply of materials for the children. The center was clean and organized. Areas of non-compliance are identified on the Violation Notice. If you have any questions regarding this inspection, please contact the Licensing Inspector, Maria Soto at maria.soto@doe.virginia.gov or (571) 835-5058.
Based on record review and interview, a written care plan including instructions from a physician regarding the food to which the child is allergic and the steps to be taken in the event of a suspected or confirmed allergic reaction was not obtained for a child with a diagnosed food allergy.
Evidence: Child #4's record does not contain a written allergy care plan for their diagnosed food allergy.
