25 | LPA, Luigi Gargaro, conducted an unannounced inspection with the licensees. Analyst met with co-licensee Ambaro Aden when he arrived at the facility. Ms. Aden does not speak English so co-Licensee Mohamed Said was called and came to the facility to meet with analyst. The home was toured and inspected to ensure an environment safe for the care and supervision of children per the standards established in CCR, Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 3, for Family Child Care Homes. The fire extinguisher and carbon monoxide detector meet requirements and are operational. All hazardous items were latched/locked and secured out of reach of children. The licensee was asked whether he had any bodies of water and weapons in the home and he replied no. A review of staff records on this date indicates that all adults or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse clearances or exemptions. First Aid and CPR certifications expire on 03/18/20 for co-licensee Aden. Co-licensee Said has his copy, issued the same day, at his child care center facility but will send analyst copy and understands a copy must also always remain at his child care home. Children’s records were reviewed.
Licensees have provided adequate space for the children to eat, sleep and play within the home. Areas used for child care include the kitchen, the living room, the first bedroom and the bathroom. Off limits areas include the second bedroom which is inaccessible through use of a door knob cover. The licensee has sufficient day care equipment available. The licensees take children to a local park for outdoor activities. Incidental Medical Services (IMS) policy was discussed. For IMS information see Evaluator Manual - Regulation Interpretations and Procedures for Family Child Care Homes Section 102417. When any IMS is provided, a Plan for Providing IMS must be submitted to the Department. The following information regarding ADA was provided: US Department of Justice (USDOJ) toll-free ADA Information Line at (800) 514-0301 (voice)/ (800) 514-0383 (TTY) and link to publication: Commonly Asked Questions about Child Care Centers and the ADA, available at: http://www.ada.gov/childqanda.htm. LPA and licensees discussed California Megan's Law and he provided licensees with the website address: www.meganslaw.ca.gov for them to review information regarding their facility on a regular basis.
Licensee was cited two type B violations today (see related 809D citation page). Analyst printed a copy of the Notice Of Site Visit today and had licensee place it in his facility notice area before he left the home. |
