At about 2:15pm, LPA conducted a records review and observed the CPR/First Aid is a certificate and not a card, nor does it have the EMSA certified stickers. This is a potential risk to children in care. Child Care Roster, Disaster Plan, and Children's Records were reviewed and discussed. Children records and required licensing forms were discussed as well as mandated child abuse reporting and criminal record clearance requirement.

The following was discussed with the Licensee:
Individuals who are 18 years of age or older living in the home must obtain a criminal record clearance. Individuals within one month of their 18th birthday must be fingerprinted immediately. Failure to obtain a criminal record background check clearances prior to initial presence in the home will result in an immediate $100.00 dollar or more per day Civil Penalty.

In the absence of the Licensee, a qualified adult must be present supervising the children; a qualified adult is an individual who has a valid and current adult/infant CPR & Pediatric First Aid certification and a valid criminal record clearance associated to the facility license.

A current roster of children enrolled must be available and maintained for a period of three years, even after children no longer are attending the facility. Annual fees must be paid promptly and by the due date or a late fee shall be assessed and/or the License shall be terminated.

The fire extinguisher type 2A-10BC must be serviced annually or as often as necessary. Smoke and Carbon Monoxide detectors should be checked and batteries replaced as needed. Changes should be reported to the Department as soon as they occur such as construction, remodeling, telephone number changes and/or if you move from your home.

Any unusual incidents or injuries must be reported to the Department within 24 hours via telephone and within seven (7) days in writing. Fire and safety drills must be performed every six months and documented for review by the Department. Smoking is prohibited in a family child care home. Children and Staff records must be maintained and updated as needed and must be available for review by the Department.

Baby walkers, saucer chairs, bouncers or any similar items are prohibited. Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and Never-Shake-a-Baby were discussed.
