25 | Licensing Program Analysts (LPA) Jeremey McClain met with Licensing Representative Allison Kelly for an unannounced Case Management Inspection. Upon arrival, LPAs observed 17 children supervised by four staff members.
On 12/06/2023, a sample from a faucet/fountain combo located in the classroom was collected and tested for lead exceedance. Results indicated lead values 9.3 parts per billion (pbb), exceeding the recommended 5.5 pbb. The source was previously used for drinking and washing hands.
Usage of the water source was stopped immediately upon receiving the results, and the fountain and faucet has been made inaccessible. Water bottles are currently being provided for drinking in lieu of the fountain. Children wash their hands in the bathroom when necessary.
Deficiencies are cited on the subsequent page of the report and are considered a potential threat to the health and safety of children in care, if not corrected.
An exit interview was conducted with the licensing Representative. LPA informed licensing representative that the results must be posted. LPA provided licensing representative with Appeal Rights, and a Notice of Site Visit that must be posted for 30 days. |
