3270.34(a)/3270.34(a)(2) Director responsibilities/Objective and activities
“On date of inspection 4/5/24, staff ratios were not maintained, children were left unsupervised, and toddler children were left sleeping in highchairs; continuing violations from the 3/14/24 inspection. CR's discussion today with infant staff person #5, she stated, "she was unaware that she was out of ratio for the (5) infants in her care, as well as the additional 1-2 babies who are absent today". Infants are cared for on the 3rd floor and 2nd floor levels of the building, posing a great concern in the ability to evacuate the building in an emergency, particularly, with limited staff. In addition, DHS Cert Rep was not given immediate access on 3/14, and after multiple attempts today- 4/5/24 CR attained access by means of an unlocked door via the play yard entrance. Despite hard knocking, calling facility via phone and children asleep- naptime, staff claimed to not hear, while other staff ignored my attempts, "stating that parents don't use the front door entrance". The conditions on 3/14/24 and the reoccurrence on 4/5/24 posed a threat to the health and or safety of the children in care. Particularly, if there was an emergency situation requiring immediate evacuation of the facility. This serious violation was addressed and cited with the operators#3/ #4 on 3/14/24, however, the violation re-occurred today-4/5/24. The facility director (owner/operators) has not responsibly managed the program of ensuring that staff ratios are maintained daily, ensuring children are supervised at all times and ensuring that the facility conditions that continue to pose health and safety concerns are removed.”
