Observation: There is no proof that two infants had medical examinations prior to being enrolled at this center. All children under age 60 months are required to have a physical examination prior to being enrolled and the agency is required to have documentation in the records. This ensures that the agency is aware of any medical issues a child may have, and ensures that these medical needs are met. 1240-04-01-.08 RECORD KEEPING Corrective Action: Owner/director states that the children had the physical examinations, but she needs documentation to prove this. Program Evaluator gave technical assistance and stressed the importance of these pre-placement physicals to ensure that all children's needs are fully met. This is especially important for infants and other young non-verbal children. An agency needs to know if an infant has apnea or any other serious medical issues. A plan of corrective action was completed.
