Comments:
An unannounced monitoring inspection was conducted from 11:40 am-2:30 pm. At the time of entrance, 12 children were in care with 3 staff members present. Children were observed playing outside, handwashing, and preparing for lunch. The children were served meatballs, polenta, peas, fruit, and milk. A selection of 5 staff and 5 children records, the physical space, evacuation drills, attendance records, and injury reports were reviewed. There were no medications on site today. Areas of non-compliance are identified in the violation notice. Please contact me if you have any questions at jessica.willis@dss.virginia.gov or 571-352-1453.
