This NC Pre-k currently operates with a Five-Star License effective May 30, 2018. This NC Pre-k operates in a DPI elementary school. This site has one NC Pre-k classroom. A partial assessment of applicable child care requirements was conducted during today’s visit. I was greeted by Ms. M. DeVane, the lead teacher, and Ms. Fields, the teacher’s aide. I observed children in the indoor learning environment and found supervision and staff/child ratios to be in compliance. Thirteen children were present during today’s visit. Children throughout the classroom were participating in free play in activity areas. The caregivers were interacting and meeting the developmental needs for each of the children. The outdoor space was monitored, and one hazard was observed today. Outdoor inspections were documented monthly. A sanitation inspection was conducted on September 3, 2024, with a superior classification and 5 demerits. The last fire inspection was conducted on July 14, 2023. There were two items of non-compliance observed during the visit. It is your responsibility to know and follow all of the child care rules and requirements, even if they have not been explained to you. Violation Number Comment Rule 106 Operator has not scheduled and obtained a fire inspection within 12 months of the previous inspection. Operator did not submit the original approved report to DCDEE within one week of the inspection visit on a form provided by the Division. The last inspection was completed July 14. 2023. 10A NCAC 09 .0304(a) 1757 A valid qualification letter was not on file and available to review at the facility. One staff member has not completed a criminal background check. G.S. 110-90.2(b) & (d) & .2703(e) The violations documented above must be corrected immediately. A signed and dated letter of compliance must be emailed to me by November 11,2024, describing how and when the violation was corrected and how compliance will be maintained in the future. Please remember your letter should include facility name, facility ID, and original signature. During the visit I provided technical assistance regarding storage of emergency medication. Although emergency medications were stored properly, I reminded staff to always ensure emergency medications and required documents are always with the child. I also reminded staff that health issues could include allergies, asthma, or other chronic conditions that require specialized health services. I suggested fanny packs or backpacks for the teachers to wear while outside so emergency medications are near but not in reach of children. I reminded them that medication should also be placed back into the medicine cabinet or five feet above when teachers return to the classroom. Criminal background checks (CBC) are completed to protect the children from abuse and reduce liability risks. The CBC process must be completed before a person can begin work; therefore, a Qualification Letter must be on file prior to employment. Any employee in a licensed child care facility who is ever left alone with a child or group of children for any length of time must have a background check completed through the Division of Child Development and Early Education (DCDEE).
