      746.1003(4) - Director Responsibilities - Employees Supervised

      “Based on the information obtained during the investigation, the minimum standard was determined to be deficient. The operation had implemented procedures requiring caregivers to contact administrative staff prior to taking children outside during periods of extreme heat or when a heat advisory was in effect. However, despite these procedures being in place, a caregiver was able to take a classroom of children outside without obtaining approval from administrative staff. As a result, a child was left unsupervised on the playground for approximately 14 minutes after the remainder of the classroom returned indoors. This incident demonstrated that the operation’s implemented procedures were not effectively monitored or followed to ensure children were protected from potential risks associated with outdoor play during extreme weather conditions and that all children remained accounted for during transitions.”

Also, staff was aware of the incident and did not immediately report or confirm that administrative staff was aware. Multiple staff members assumed that another staff member reported the incident which delayed parent notification of the incident because administrative staff was not aware until closing time.”
