25 | This case management inspection was conducted by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Warren Birks. Due to COVID-19 and precautionary measures, this inspection was conducted via teleconference with Director Margaret Blevins.
LPA conducted staff interviews regarding a self reported incident that occurred on February 24, 2021. Based on interviews, there was disclosure indicating that staff #1 released child #1 to individuals (in the parent pick up line) that were not authorized to pick up child #1. As a result of the miscommunication, child #1 was left outside the scope of visual observation for approximately one minute (until a parent notified another staff member). The facility is cited for lack of supervision as their was a lapse in visual supervision by staff during the parent pick-up.
Director Blevins indicated that the facility will implement new procedures and training regarding the parent pick up process this week. Note: The facility reported the incident to Child Care Licensing within a timely manner (24 hours).
LPA advised Director Blevins that the facility is required to provide a copy of this report to the parent/guardian of children currently enrolled by the next business day or immediately upon return. A copy of this report shall also be provided to the parent/guardian of any newly enrolled children for the next 12 months. The Licensee will obtain signature and date from the child’s parent/guardian on the Acknowledgement of Receipt of Licensing Reports, LIC 9224 (form provided).
Exit interview conducted with Director via teleconference. This report along with a copy of the appeal rights will be sent to the Licensee via email with a read receipt to confirm receipt of the report and to act as the signature on the report. |
