25 | On January 31 2024, at 11:30 AM Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Courtnee Peebles arrived unannounced at Venable Family child care home (FCCH) to conduct a complaint investigation. Upon arrival LPA met with assistant Felicia Meadows who informed LPA Licensee Venable was out of town due to a family emergency. LPA spoke with assistant and licensee on the telephone and informed them that the licensee is to be present in home 80% daily, due to the fact the licensee did not inform Community care licensing (CCL) of her absence this poses a potential health and safety risk to children in care. A citation will be issued. Licensee is being cited under Title 22 Regulation 102417(a) Operation of Family Child Care Home, The licensee shall be present in the home and shall ensure that children in care are supervised at all times. When circumstances require the licensee to be temporarily absent from the home, the licensee shall arrange for a substitute adult to care for and supervise the children during his/her absence. Temporary absences shall not exceed 20 percent of the hours that the facility is providing care per day.
See LIC809-D for cited deficiencies
