Technical Assistance:
Provided consultation on standards: 1) 340F: children under 10 years of age always shall be within actual sight and sound supervision of staff, except that staff need only be able to hear a child who is using the restroom; when children use a hallway bathroom and there are no staff in the hallway, this standard is not met; when children enter a storage room alone, they are not in sight and sound of staff 2) 550: emergency drills are used to practice the most likely to occur emergency scenarios; each drill should be a stand-alone drill so that everyone knows and understands what to do for that specific scenario. Please vary the times and days of emergency drills so that they do not occur back-to-back.
Comments:
An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted from 4:00 - 4:45 pm with staff. There were 35 children, ranging from five years to 11 years of age, present with three staff supervising. Children were observed completing an art project, washing hands, eating snack and playing in a variety of centers with age-appropriate toys. Three onsite staff records and two onsite child records were reviewed at the time of the inspection along with the daily attendance record, emergency drill log, written list of food allergies, sensitivities and dietary restrictions, nine medications and the required posted information. Two staff were on site with current Medication Administration Training (MAT) certification. Three staff records were reviewed off site at the YMCA office on 5/4/2023.

Based on staff interview, the facility failed to inform all staff who work with children of children's allergies, sensitivities and dietary restrictions. Evidence: when asked, not all staff could accurately state which children in the group had allergies, sensitivities and/or dietary restrictions.
Plan of Correction:
All staff need to know who has allergies and dietary restrictions.
Standard #:
8VAC20-780-280-B
Description:
Based on observation, and staff interview, it was determined that not all hazardous substances were kept in a locked place using a safe locking method that prevents access by children. Evidence: A bottle of sanitizing solution was observed sitting on the mini fridge in the storage room with it's door wide open. When asked, staff stated that children enter this area and the LI observed two children enter the storage room alone.
Plan of Correction:
Staff need to check shared space and make sure everything is in a secured location.
