Inspection records for New York City center-based programs come from the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, which permits them. The city notes that some violations may not be final: programs can challenge citations at a hearing, and adjudicated violations may be dismissed.

How to read violations

Nearly 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.

Paperwork — records, postings, forms Standard — supervision, ratio, training Health & safety — direct risk to a child

Class is our grouping of the state’s own weights, reviewed per state. The agency’s own label is always shown beside it.
