A total of 1 child?s record and 5 staff records were reviewed during the inspection. The inspector arrived at 1:30 pm and departed at 3:15 pm.
Information gathered during the inspection determined there to be violations of applicable laws. Those violations are detailed on the violation notice issued to the provider. The complaint was determined to be valid.
Based on record review, the provider failed to obtain documentation that each person in a supervisory position has been certified by a practicing physician or physician assistant to be free from disability which would prevent him from caring for children under his supervision.
