Staff admitted that an infant child has been in the classroom with his mother, who is a teacher at the Center, for the entire program on at least two consecutive days. Staff also report that the same infant has been cared for on the premises of the Center by his grandmother, who is also a teacher at the Center, by his middle-school aged aunt before and after school and also by his uncle who attends CSM, all in the office of the Center on multiple occasions. This Center is not allowed to have any children under the age of two years old. The mother of the infant reports that she now takes him to a sitter's home; adding that he no longer comes to the Center. She has made alternative arrangements for his care and for emergencies. Therefore, this non-compliance has been corrected.
During the inspection, the classroom felt unusually cold. The classrooms have a heater located at the top of the rooms near the ceiling and they are set on 86 degrees F. Nevertheless, the thermometer in one of the classrooms located on top of the refrigerator is reading 63 degrees R. In that same room, the floor temperature measures only 58 degrees F. In another classroom, the floor temperature only measures 62 degrees F while the thermometer on top of a waist-high cabinet measures 64 degrees F. The floor temperature must not be less than 65 degrees F. Please talk to the building management to rectify this and bring all classrooms up to a floor temperature of 65 degrees F or more. Please provide evidence of having done so to OCC for the correction of this non-compliance.
Allegations state that the parent wants to take her child to his or her classroom, but was made to feel uncomfortable when she did. When staff were asked about this, they all reported that it is to teach the children more independence. One teacher reported that there is a red line at the front where parents sign in their children and they are not allowed to cross that line. This is reportedly done so that their child can walk to their classroom gaining independence and so that the parent does not cause disruption to the classroom. However, while on-site, the LS saw a parent take their child to his classroom and another reported that she has never asked to do so, but has also never heard of anyone being denied. LS educated all staff that parents are allowed to freely observe all areas of the Center used for child care during operating hours and to have access to their child at any time during hours of operation without an appointment. The staff are now aware of this and agree to allow parental access, if so desired. Therefore, this non-compliance is now corrected.
Allegations are that a teacher brought her infant son into the classroom. During the investigation, the teacher admitted that she had her infant son in the classroom with her for two consecutive days while she was teaching because her sitter was sick and she had no other child care options. This does not allow for the teacher to provide adequate supervision and attention to the individual needs of the children in her classroom while she is also caring for her infant son. This teacher reports that she is now taking her son to a sitter and has alternative plans for his care if the sitter is sick. Therefore, this non-compliance is now corrected.
During a review of a sampling of children's records, it was found that a 4 year old girl and a 4 year old boy are both missing their physician's phone number and address on their emergency forms. Please notify their respective parents so that they may add the needed information to their child's emergency form. Then send a copy of the updated emergency form to OCC for the correction of this non-compliance.
During a review of children's records, it was found that a 4 year old girl and a 4 year old boy had documentation of a blood lead test being ordered by their respective physicians, but no blood lead test results were found. Please notify the respective parents and have them obtain their child's blood lead test results from their physician and add the results to their file. Send OCC a copy of their blood lead test results for the correction of this non-compliance.
The Center completed a 1203 today to delete a staff member from May of this year. The Center only has 5 business days to provide written notice to OCC of the ending of employment for any staff member. Due to the completion of the 1203 deleting her, this non-compliance is already corrected.
When the water in the bathrooms in the front rooms was tested, it read a temperature of 134 degrees F. The water temperature may not exceed 120 degrees F. Please adjust the temperature of the water so that it does not exceed 120 degree F and provide evidence of having done so to OCC for the correction of this non-compliance.
An Aide currently working at the Center has not had a medical completed since 09/16/2019. In addition, a teacher who is currently working at the Center has not had a medical completed since 01/30/2020. Please have both of them complete a medical on the OCC form as soon as possible. Keep a copy for their employee file and send it to OCC for the correction of this non-compliance.
The Director has not completed the required 12 hours of continued training. She only completed 8 hours of required training. The Director needs to complete another 4 hours of continued training as soon as possible. Please send the completed training certificates to OCC for the correction of this non-compliance.
The Director, a teacher and an Aide all completed the MSDE's 2023 Basic Health and Safety, albeit late. They were to complete the course no later than 03/31/2024, but did not complete it until 09/08/2024 and 10/09/2024 respectively. It is the Director's responsibility to ensure that the yearly basic health and safety course is completed by staff by the end of each calendar year. Since they have now completed the trainings, this non-compliance has been corrected.
A preschool teacher completed 8 out of her 12 hours of continued training outside of her training period of 08/2024 - 08/2025. She still needs to complete one more hour of training to have 12 hours of continued training. Please have her complete this one hour of additional training as soon as possible. Send the completed training certificate to OCC for the correction of this non-compliance.
An Aide should have completed a 3 hour Aide Orientation course no later than 02/19/2025, but has not yet done so. Please have her complete this course as soon as possible. Send her completed training certificate to OCC for the correction of this non-compliance.
