32 | Applicant was reminded that all infants must be placed on their backs when sleeping to prevent S.I.D.S. (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome), and that the Provider is required to wash hands after every diaper change and to never shake a baby to prevent the Shaken Baby Syndrome
The applicant was also recommended the following safe sleep practices: always place infants on their backs for sleeping; use only a tight-fitting sheet on the crib or play yard mattress; do not hang any items from the crib or above the crib; keep all items, including blankets, out of the crib or play yard; pacifiers may be used as long as they do not have items attached to them; infants should not be swaddled or have any items covering them while sleeping; the temperature of the room should be comfortable enough for an adult to wear a T-shirt and not be too hot or too cold. Please note, these guidelines are recommendations for best practices only, until regulations are approved and adopted.
The applicant was advised that, once licensed, the Notice of Site Visit must be posted at the entrance of the facility for a period of 30 days. If a serious violation is cited, (Type A violation), a copy of the licensing report (LIC809 or LIC9099) must also be posted for 30 days. If these requirements are not met, civil penalties in the amount of $100 per violation will be assessed.
LPA discussed AB633 and informed applicant that, upon receipt of a Type A deficiency, the licensee shall post and provide copies of the licensing report to parent/guardians of children in care at the facility and to parents/guardians of children newly enrolled at the facility during the next 12 months.
All adults living and working in the home shall be made aware of the Departments right to inspection authority, which includes but not limited to the right to enter the home when children are being cared for, interview children and adults and review documentation.
New Appeal Process: A licensee may file an appeal, in writing within 15 business days from the date of receiving the penalty assessment
