25 | *THIS IS AN AMENDED REPORT*
At 3:25pm on 9/17/2024, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Matthew Gallo arrived at the facility to conduct a plan of correction visit related to citations issued on 8/29/2024. Upon arrival, LPA was greeted by the director's assistant John Tadeo and observed 21 preschool children supervised by 4 staff.
Licensee was previously cited a Type A deficiency on 8/29/2024 for an aide providing care to children without the supervision of a teacher. The plan of correction dictated that the director will provide an updated staff schedule that shows the director acting as a qualified teacher to ensure that aides are always under the supervision of a teacher, and that LPA would return to ensure compliance.
At 3:25pm, LPA entered the facility and observed 4 staff (S1, S2, S3, and S4) supervising 21 preschool children in the large preschool room. Based on interview and record review, LPA determined that 1 of the 4 staff (S1) was a qualified teacher and the other 3 staff (S2, S3, and S4) were aides. All of the aides present were operating under the supervision of a teacher; therefore the plan of correction was fulfilled.
Exit interview was conducted and report was reviewed with the facility representative, John Tadeo. A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days. Appeal rights were provided.
