Comments:
A Subsidy Health and Safety inspection was conducted on 10/29/2019 from 12:40 p.m to 2:00 p.m. to review supplemental health and safety requirements.
There were 4 children present, including one household child, for a total of 17 points, in care with the vendor. The records sample size consisted of 4 vendor / household member records and 3 children?s records. Children were observed cleaning up from play and transitioning to mats for rest period. The vendor states that no medication is administered to children in care at this time. Children are sometimes transported in a vehicle and the requirements regarding transportation a outings were reviewed. Children play outdoors at a nearby public park with direct supervision and close proximity of the vendor. The vendor reports that there have been no accidents or injuries requiring first aid or medical treatment incurred by children in care since the last inspection. There are no children currently enrolled who have diagnosed food allergies.
A licensing inspection was conducted on the same date as the SHSI supplemental inspection; the two inspections combined cover all subsidy health and safety requirements. Only subsidy requirements that are not covered in licensing standards are reviewed during this supplemental inspection. Areas of non-compliance are identified on the violation notice. Thank you for your time during today's inspection. Please do not hesitate to contact me if I may be of assistance.
