An announced case management tele-visit via Face-time was conducted by Licensing Program Analyst Blesi due to COVID-19. LPA Blesi conducted the tele-visit with director Kim McDonnel. Director is requesting to add an additional classroom for children to use. The capacity will not be increased at this time and remains at current capacity of 60 children. The facility’s hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 7:00am - 6:00pm. LPA Blesi received the approved fire clearance on 7/29//20. A virtual health and safety inspection was conducted in all areas accessible to children. Director measured the room, and LPA walked her through the measuring process. The room is to be used by preschool children only. The classroom was measured at 394.261 square feet. LPA observed sufficient amount of furniture, toys, and play equipment in the classroom. A functional carbon monoxide detector was observed in the room. LPA observed that disinfectants and items that could pose a danger to a child are inaccessible and stored appropriately. Director stated children will share a bathroom with the classroom next door or they can use the one in the hallway. An exit interview was conducted and in the areas that were evaluated, no deficiencies were observed at the time of the tele-inspection. This facility evaluation report was reviewed and discussed with director. LPA emailed a copy of the 809 to director. Director understands she must read the reports and send back an acknowledgement that she read and received the report.
