Follow-up on corrections·September 29, 2022

On 9/29/2022 @ 2:00 p.m., Licensing Program Analsyt (LPA), Joelle Redding, made an unannounced visit due to a positive lead result from the South kitchen water faucet, attached to Room 105. LPA spoke with Director Karissa Riddle. This sink has not been used for drinking, however it was used for food prep prior to the pandemic. The facility has had the problem addressed since the report, however the faucet continues to test positive. The next step is to install a water filter. The faucet has not been used since the report and there is another kitchen where the faucets have passed inspection that is now used as food prep for snacks. A Type A deficiency will be cited on the accompanying LIC 809D. LPA informed the Director to provide a copy of this licensing report dated 9/20/22 that documents any Type A citations to parents/guardians of all children currently enrolled by the next business day or the next day the children are in care, and to any newly enrolled parents/guardians for 12 months from the date of this report. A signed Acknowledgement of Receipt of Licensing Report (LIC 9224), or other written statement, must be placed in the child's file for verification. Form was provided during the visit. LPA informed Director that this report, dated 9/20/22 and documenting one Type A citation, shall be posted for 30 consecutive days as there is immediate risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of children in care. Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with Director. NOTICE OF SITE VISIT WAS GIVEN AND WILL REMAIN POSTED FOR 30 DAYS. Failure to comply with posting requirements shall result in an immediate civil penalty of $100.
