Technical Assistance:
Today we discussed / followed up on the spring-mounted outdoor play equipment and the tricycle merry go round piece of equipment. - these pieces of equipment DO REQUIRE resilient surfacing and fall zones. Copies were provided of Child Day Center standard # 8VAC 20-330 as well as a copy of attachment VII. (at back of CDC Standards) regarding National Program for Playground Safety's "Selecting Playground Surface Materials for Your Playground", Compressed Loose Fill Synthetic Materials Depth Chart, and Equipment Use Zone Chart.
If you have questions about the spacing of outdoor play equipment, fall zones or other requirements, please contact your licensing inspector.
Please document your plan for coming into compliance for the required fall zones and resilient surfacing for your outdoor play equipment and submit this plan to your licensing inspector within 10 days of inspection (10/1/2023 close of business).
Comments:
A monitoring inspection was initiated and concluded on 9/21/2023. There were 35 children, ages 5 months to 4 years of age, present with 9 staff supervising. The inspector reviewed compliance in the areas of administration, physical plant, staffing and supervision, programming, medication, special care and emergencies and nutrition. A total of 5 child records and 5 staff records were reviewed. Children were observed interacting with peers and staff, playing in centers, eating lunch, and sleeping during rest time. The inspection started at 11:20 am and concluded at 2:15 pm. Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliance with applicable standards or law and violations were documented on the violation notice issued to the program.
Based on observation and interview, the licensee did not ensure that the results of the most recent inspection are posted in a conspicuous place on the licensed premises.
Evidence: The results of the most recent licensing inspection were not posted in the facility. The parent board located at the the front entry contained the posted results of the Subsidy Inspection conducted on 4/20/2023, which resulted in no violations being cited. However the Violation Notice that was issued for the Licensing Monitoring Inspection, dated 4/20/2023 was not posted. The administrative assistant on duty at the time of the inspection confirmed that this documentation was not posted.
Plan of Correction:
The Administrative staff on duty stated that she would ensure the results of the current inspection and subsequent inspections are posted visibly immediately upon receipt, following each inspection.
