At least one person trained in CPR and Pediatric First Aid is present when children are at the facility or at offsite activities. The name of the child care center director or fully-qualified teacher(s) designated to act in the director’s absence has been reported to the Department. LPA reviewed the requirement indicating that the person who signs the child in/out of the facility shall use their full legal signature and record the time of day. All children are under supervision, including visual supervision, of a teacher at all times. Ratio was discussed today as it was observed that there were 43 children in care with two qualified teachers and four aides that did not have any child development units. Director confirmed that none of the aids had college units. LPA reviewed the regulation with the Director and the Assistant Superintendent today and explained that although they were part of a school district, the facility was required to abide by title 22 ratio regulations. LPA reviewed a sample of children’s files and observed files were complete with contact information for authorized representative and or relatives or others who can assume responsibility for the child and medical assessment. LPA reviewed a sample of staff files and observed files were complete with health screening. One staff file was missing proof of immunization records for pertussis and measles and current documentation of completed mandated reporter training through Keenan and Associates was observed. Menus are posted at least one week in advance where an authorized representative can view them.
