25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Marie Rodriguez made an announced Case Management inspection. LPA met with Director Carol Thomsen and explained purpose of inspection. Licensee is requesting an increase of capacity to 60 children and the room additions of P17 (East Room), P18 (Center Room), and P19 (West Room). Facility currently has a capacity of 40 children and uses rooms P15 and P16. Present at the facility were the Director, 6 teachers, and 33 children (preschool aged). Once additional rooms have been licensed, rooms P15 and P16 will no longer be in use and will be renovated. Facility was inspected today for health and safety hazards and measured to calculate capacity.
LPA and Director toured rooms P17, P18, and P19 for health and safety hazards. Each classroom is equipped with an industrial fire alarm, a smoke and carbon monoxide detector, and a fully charged fire extinguisher. Each classroom has a bathroom with two toilets and one sink. A second sink right outside of the bathroom will be used for children's use. Room P17 has appropriate chairs and tables for children along with cots on the side wall. There is a storage space for children's personal belongings. Children's toys, furniture, and other equipment for rooms P17, P18 and P19 will be moved from classrooms P15 and P16 once license has been approved since it's currently in use.
Indoor: Total useable indoor area for rooms P17, P18, and P19 measures at 2,547.52 sq ft divided by 35 sq ft equals 72 children. Outdoor: Total useable outdoor area measures at 10,960.52 sq ft divdied by 75 sq ft equals 146 children. Licensee is requesting an increase of capacity for a total of 60 children.
