“During the inspection, a bottle of bleach water mix was found on the sink in the preschool Butterfly room and another bottle of bleach water mix was found sitting on the lid of the trashcan by the table where the children were about to have lunch in one of the downstairs classrooms. Both of these bottles were accessible to the children when they were observed. Please keep all potentially hazardous materials out of the reach of children. Please write a letter of correction stating how the Center will become in compliance with this regulation in the future.”

“Center did not provide a 1203 form to OCC to delete several staff members within 5 business days of the end of their employment. Director found some 1203s, but not others. Today, the Director submitted a 1203 to delete the remaining staff members who no longer work at the Center. Therefore, this non-compliance was corrected on-site.”

“During the inspection, all of the classrooms located in the upstairs portion of the Center had inaccurate staffing patterns posted listing staff that no longer work at the Center. During the inspection, all of the Center's staffing patterns were updated to be accurate, posted in the respective classrooms and the LS was given a copy of them for the correction of this non-compliance. Therefore, this non-compliance was corrected on-site.”

“During a review of a sampling of children's records, it was found that two children are missing a second blood lead test. Children are required to have a blood lead test at 12 months and 24 months of age. Please notify the respective parents in writing of the need for the second blood lead test and provide that written notice to OCC for the correction of this non-compliance. It will then be corrected with the understanding that the parent will schedule the blood lead testing, provide the blood lead test results to the Center and the Center will file it in the respective child's file.”

“During a review of a sampling of children's records, it was found that three children need their physician's information listed on their emergency form. Two out of the three emergency forms were corrected on-site due to their parent working at the Center. One child also needed an emergency contact listed on her emergency form, but it was also corrected on-site because the parent works at the Center. Therefore, all aspects of this regulation was corrected on-site.”

“During the inspection, the LS noticed that four out of the five posted activity plans in the Caterpillar A Room have not been updated since June of this year. They must be updated, at least, every 3 months. An activity plan was also missing for the sixth child enrolled in the room. Please have the parent of the sixth child complete an activity plan for that child and send a copy of it to OCC. Have the other parents of the four children update their respective child's plan. Send a copy of those updated plans to OCC for the correction of this non-compliance.”

“Per the recorded video, the identified staff person used inappropriate discipline by struggling with the child to retrieve her from underneath the table. That same staff member also slid the child across the cot while using a great amount of force. That staff member also forcibly held the child in her lap and then down on the cot. This exhibits inappropriate discipline by the staff member which is against regulation and against the standards and practices set forth by the Center.”

“Even though the Center saw injuries on a 3 year old child from the actions of a staff member, no one reported the incident to OCC or to CPS or to law enforcement. The Center did, however, fire the staff member that same day as the incident and informed the parent. Please write a letter of correction stating how you will become in compliance with this regulation in the future and submit it to OCC for the correction of this non-compliance.”

“It was determined by the Center that an Aide in the 2-3 year old classroom caused injuries to the left forearm and right underarm of a 3 year old child during nap time. The Center has a recorded video of the staff member being aggressive with the child, pulling her onto and off of her cot, holding her forcefully in her lap as well as forcefully holding her down on her cot. The staff member reported to the Center that she accidentally caused the injuries when she pulled the child out from underneath a table. However, this was not able to be seen in the video. This account may not be a logical explanation of the injuries, especially since the child came out from under the table on her own and away from the direction of the staff member. Despite the mode of injury, the staff member was inappropriate and excessively forceful with the child as evidenced in the video. The Center acted appropriately by firing that staff member the same day as the incident as soon as they were made aware of what occurred.”

13A.16.03.05B

“During the complaint inspection, it was found that none of the rooms had accurate staffing patterns posted. LS is aware that there have been some very recent changes in staff. Please provide a copy of accurate staffing patterns for each room to OCC for the correction of this non-compliance.”

13A.16.03.06A(2)

“When going over the associated party list with the Center, there were several staff who no longer work at the Center, but a 1203 form to delete them had not been submitted. During the inspection, a 1203 was submitted by the Center for all of the staff no longer working here or those that are being changed to a substitute. Therefore, this non-compliance was corrected on-site.”

13A.16.03.05E

“When asked about inaccurate staffing patterns during the inspection, the Center reported that they are currently training staff and she will then see where their best fit will be before changing staffing patterns. However, these staff are not included on the substitute logs. In addition, a substitute log has not be completed for the Butterfly room since 05/01/2025, but they are continuing to use substitutes. Please provide proof to OCC of utilizing the sub log for all substitutions on the current staffing patterns for the correction of this non-compliance.”
