Violations
Text reproduced verbatim · Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Child Care RegulationNearly 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.
“8 out of 8 infants did not have feeding forms available to review.”
“7 out of 7 staff members did not have orientation training available to review.”
“7 out of 7 staff did not have a notarized affidavit available to review.”
“The changing mats on the changing tables in two classrooms have a few tears and rips in them there have been taped over.”
“A caregiver providing care to seven children, ages seven months to thirteen months was over ratio by two children. Note: This was corrected at inspection when a second caregiver was placed in classroom.”
“During the course of the investigation, it was determined that a caregiver used screen time for children under two years of age in the infant classroom.”
“Promotion of indoor and outdoor physical activity was not available for review in the operational policy.”
“One out of nine children files did not have a health statement to review.”
“It was observed of a child down the hallway standing out side a classroom door with out a caregiver present.”
“Milk jugs were observed being stored in the hand washing sink in two rooms. This was corrected at inspection when a discussion was had with the caregivers about the use of hand washing sinks and the jugs were removed.”
“A bench is separating and has exposed screws.”
“A storage closet containing cleaning supplies was unlocked. The closet is located in a children's bathroom stall and is accessible to children when not locked. This was corrected at inspection when the lock was realigned and the door was secured.”
“Emergency numbers were not posted.”
