Even though a drug is listed on an allergy action plan, if it is not the emergency medication, it must be locked up. Emergency medication, such as a recue inhaler or epinephrine pen, is designated as such because it is expected to work within seconds. Non-emergency medication, such as prescription or over the counter medication, is designated as such because it takes several minutes to have an effect on the child. We discussed the medication can be placed in a separate zipper of the fanny pack or backpack and locked, or could be placed in locked storage in the office. Refer to Sanitation Rule 15A NCAC 18A.2820(d) for details about this requirement. Item #805 and #1811 Plan to document drills conducted at the start of the school year on the safety drill log. A copy of the drill log was provided to you in the email containing this visit summary. Refer to Child Care Rules .0604(t); .0302(d)(5) for details about this requirement. Achieving Compliance: Child Care programs are expected to achieve and maintain compliance at all times and are required by NC GS 110-90(4) (d) to achieve and maintain an eighteen-month compliance history score of at least seventy-five percent. Any violation(s) documented may impact the compliance history score. The violation(s) documented must be corrected immediately. I must receive a written, dated, and signed compliance letter that describes accurately and in detail, how and when the violations were corrected. Please be aware any information submitted by you is legal documentation. If it is determined the information provided in the letter is not true, this may be considered falsification of information. If sufficient information is not received by the due date, a follow-up visit will be conducted. The violations documented above must be corrected immediately.

Consultation is provided as follows: We discussed fire drills. Fire drills must be conducted via alarm whenever possible. We discussed technical and staffing issues may make this difficult. We discussed today that you will plan to work with school custodial staff to ensure fire drills are conducted with the alarm, moving forward. We discussed children with allergies that do not have rescue medication. As a reminder, all non-emergency medication, such as over the counter allergy medication, must be maintained in locked storage. We discussed emergency medication should be easily accessible to adults and should not be locked. Plan to maintain the non-emergency and emergency medication in separate pouches on backpacks and fanny packs, to ensure proper storage. Proper supervision is the first line of defense to ensuring no incidents occur with food allergies. Ensure staff are aware of all children with allergies and give extra attention to those children during meal time. We discussed that there are staff who would like to bring coffee drinks to the facility. Staff who bring coffee to the facility will need to transfer the coffee into an opaque container in order to properly model appropriate eating practices. Since caffeinated drinks are not included in the recommended meal patterns for children, staff should not consume them in front of children.

You may see potential indicators of maltreatment in the children under your care. Some children may even be more likely to disclose maltreatment to a child care provider than to a family member. It is required that all providers are aware of maltreatment indicators and to report any suspicions of maltreatment. Follow child care rules related to child maltreatment training: 10A NCAC 09 .1102(g) and 10A NCAC 09 .1703(a)(5) states the child care administrator, operator, and all staff members shall complete Recognizing and Responding to Suspicions of Child Maltreatment training within 90 days of employment.

Please visit ncrlap.org to learn more about ways to prepare for the Environment Rating Scale assessments. We discussed the importance of ensuring all staff have their education evaluated by WORKS. It is the center operator’s responsibility to make sure each staff person has registered for a WORKS account, submit an official transcript (if applicable) and apply for a position for evaluation. This should be completed immediately upon hiring or at the latest, by the end of the six-week orientation process. Failure to maintain the same education point level may result in a violation of the above rule reference and may result in a reduction of stars. Child Care Rule 10A NCAC 09 .2830 (c) If employment-related changes occur at a facility that result in the operator not complying with the standards in the Section for the star rating issued, the operator shall correct the noncompliance within 120 days. If the operator does not correct the noncompliance within 120 days, the operator shall notify the Division.

You may see potential indicators of maltreatment in the children under your care. Some children may even be more likely to disclose maltreatment to a child care provider than to a family member. It is required that all providers are aware of maltreatment indicators and to report any suspicions of maltreatment. Follow child care rules related to child maltreatment training: 10A NCAC 09 .1102(g) and 10A NCAC 09 .1703(a)(5) states the child care administrator, operator, and all staff members shall complete Recognizing and Responding to Suspicions of Child Maltreatment training within 90 days of employment.

Please visit ncrlap.org to learn more about ways to prepare for the Environment Rating Scale assessments. We discussed the importance of ensuring all staff have their education evaluated by WORKS.

This should be completed immediately upon hiring or at the latest, by the end of the six-week orientation process.
