In order to assure that staff and children are familiar with all of the EOP drills, programs shall: (1) Practice evacuation off-site and bomb threats once per year with all child care staff; (2) Practice at least 2 other components of their EOP with all child care staff and children each calendar year; and (3) Review all EOP response actions with all staff at least 4 times each calendar year.
Staff A stated that the program only reviewed their Emergency Operations Plan two times in 2023, when programs must review all EOP response actions with all staff at least four times each calendar year. Corrective action: Directors have been reminded and instructed to review 4 times a calendar year with all staff. We will post calendar reminders, on our joint calendar, to review the EOP every three months if it has not already been reviewed within those three months. All employees will review their program's EOP by the end of April 2024.
