Educare Child Care #7

“Two of the infant teachers didn't have training for recognizing and preventing shaken baby syndrome and abusive head trauma, understanding and using safe sleep practices, and preventing sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and understanding early childhood brain development. NOTE: Compliance has been met as training was completed.”

“Two of the six children's files were missing healthcare statements. One of the six children didn't have an immunization record available at inspection.”

“At time of inspection a young toddler class was observed having screen time. NOTE: This was corrected at inspection.”

“Three out of four staff files evaluated did not have current trainings available for review for: Handling, storing, and disposing of hazardous materials; Preventing and responding to emergencies due to food or an allergic reaction; and Administering medication.”

“One infant in the infant room does not have an updated feeding scheduled signed by the parent.”

“The fire extinguishers in both vans available for transportation are expired as of January 2023.”

“At the time of inspection, the vehicles used for transportation had the following issues: Van #1 (tan): One seatbelt in the last row and one seatbelt in the first row do not buckle properly. Additionally, the door handle for the double doors is broken, preventing the doors from being opened. Van #2 (white): The seatbelt in the first row behind the driver does not buckle properly. The operation has been advised not to use Van #1 (tan) until the seatbelts and door have been repaired.”

“One child was unsupervised in the two year old classroom bathroom while the group of children and caregivers were in the school age classroom.”

“Four infant feeding schedules were expired at the time of inspection.”

“The fire extinguisher was expired on the van used for transportation.”

“Based on the information gathered during the inspection, children in the 18 to 24 month old classroom are placed in time out in the high chair.”

“The antibiotic ointment was expired at the time of inspection.”

“There were three gallon cans of paint in the two year old bathroom closet accessible to the children in care. This was corrected when the paint cans were removed from the closet and placed out of the reach of children.”

“One child's file reviewed did not contain a health statement.”

“The menu posted in the food preparation area for that day did not match the food being served on that day. The Tuesday menu was being served on a Friday without a record to show the substitution. This was corrected at inspection when the director updated the posted menu to reflect the food being served on that day.”
