Comments:
A monitoring inspection was conducted on 8/5/22 from 11:15am until 12:55pm. At the time of the inspection, there were 33 children in care with 6 staff present. A sample of 5 children's records and 4 staff records were reviewed. Children were observed engaging in free play, playing on the playground, eating lunch and preparing for nap time. Lunch service and handwashing procedures were also observed. First aid and emergency supplies, documentation of emergency practice drills, the emergency preparedness plan, children's injury reports and required center postings were reviewed. Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliance with applicable standards or law. Violations are listed on the violation notice issued to the center and were discussed with the center director during the exit interview.
Based on a review of medication and interview, the center did not ensure that when prescription medication is administered to a child that would normally be administered by a parent or a guardian that written parental authorization is obtained.
Evidence: 1. Child 1 is prescribed an ADHD medication. The medication authorization form located at the center for child 1 did not include the parent's signature for the center to administer the medication. a. Child 1 was administered the prescribed medication at the center nine times between 6/27/22 and 8/4/22. 2. The center director confirmed that the medication authorization form for child 1 was not signed by the parent and that the center had administered the medication to the child.
Plan of Correction:
The center responded with the following: This was an oversight. The parent brought in the medication authorization form signed by the physician and forgot to sign the form. The parent has been contacted and will sign the medication authorization form at pick-up today.
