25 | On 12/01/2022 at 9:10 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Katrina Chicote conducted an unannounced case management inspection to the above facility and met with Aileen Valino-Camcam, Site Supervisor. LPA disclosed the purpose of the inspection and was provided a guided tour of the facility both indoors and outdoors. Facility also has an Infant Program with a Toddler Component on site (Facility #198400110).
There were 48 children and 15 staff present during the inspection.
The purpose of today's inspection was to discuss the water lead test results. Results show that one water source has an action level exceedance (ALE) of lead. The drinking fountain located inside 2 year old classroom, RM2s-1, had a lead exceedance of 20. Site Supervisor states that there are currently 13 enrolled in this classroom. The Regional Office did receive a call to the On Duty officer on 10/28/2022 notifying Department of lead exceedance at the facility. On 11/17/2022, LPA received email with LIC 9275 and LIC 9276 attached.
At 9:20 AM, LPA observed and took pictures of the water source with ALE. Water source was observed to already have been removed at time of inspection and blocked by children's cubbies. Site Supervisor stated upon receiving notice of the lead exceedance the water source to the drinking fountain was shut off and a work order was submitted to remove the drinking fountain. Site Supervisor provided photo of drinking fountain shut off and the water fountain was removed on 11/30/2022. Per Site Supervisor, this water fountain has not been used by the facility as the policy is for families to bring personal water bottles from home and refilled in water fill stations that LPA observed in hallways of facility. LPA observed children's water bottles during inspection. Per Site Supervisor, if children forget to bring water bottles they are provided with water cups through out the day.
