25 | On 11/02/2022 at 2:30pm, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Samantha Clenista conducted an unannounced Plan of Correction inspection for the purpose to ensure that the facility’s bodies of water (pools and jacuzzi’s) are appropriately inaccessible per regulation. Upon arrival, LPA met with Director, Monica Oates, and proceeded to tour the facility. LPA observed a total of 18 children with a total of 2 staff members. Children were observed playing on the basketball court. Appropriate ratio, capacity and supervision was observed.
On 09/23/2022, LPA conducted a case management site visit and inspected all licensed areas and the pool area that is on site. During that inspection, LPA observed that the fencing surrounding the bodies of water were 5 ft. or higher, with the exception of several panels. There was a gate that the employees entered located behind the bathroom pool area, that does not self-latch, and has access to the bodies of water. LPA also observed a total of 6 vertical metal self-latching gates that pull away from the bodies of water, however, 4 of the 6 gates, do not self-latch at all distances. There was also a small area located near the pool bathrooms where the vertical metal fence exceeds 2 inches from the ground to the bottom of the fence.
On 11/01/2022, Assistant General Manager, Amy Alexander, contacted LPA stating that all corrections have been made to ensure that the fencing was fixed per regulation. LPA toured the facility and inspected the updated fencing and self-latching gates to ensure plan of correction for the deficiency was met. LPA observed the fencing to meet regulation, with the exception of 2 gates that still do not self-latch at all distances.
