Violations
Text reproduced verbatim · NYC Department of Health and Mental HygieneNearly every licensed provider accumulates some. A missing signature and an unlocked medicine cabinet are both “violations”, and they are not the same thing. Look at the class, the pattern over time and how quickly it was corrected — not the count alone.
Class is our grouping of the state’s own weights, reviewed per state. The agency’s own label is always shown beside it.
“School-based child care staff observed caring for children while unhealthy. Staff medical certificate of fitness Not provided.”
“Approved fire extinguishers provided in good working order and inspected”
“Water Not tested for lead as required. Elevated lead levels Not remediated. School fails to use approved water source when indicated”
