During LPA's file review on annual inspection, LPA observed staff records to be incomplete, immunization records for staff were not maintained, sleeping logs for napping infants (under 24 months) were not conducted, licensee's CPR/First Aid certification had expired and emergency disaster drills had not been conducted. LPA issued five Type B citations. A POC for each deficiency was developed with licensee. As of this date, LPA observed licensee to be operating with 8 children (4 infants and 4 preschool age). Licensee has staggered children's schedules so they are not operating with more than 4 infants at a time. A child care roster was provided to LPA during visit. Licensee also provided LPA with a copy of schedule to be followed until one of the infants present turns 2 years old. Licensee provided copies of Acknowledgement of Receipt of Licensing Reports (LIC9224) to enrolled children's families, however, not every family has returned signed copy.
