On 6/7/23 at 2:51 PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Annette Sutherland conducted a case management inspection. The purpose of this visit was to follow up on an unusual incident report dated 6/5/23 and to cite for a personal rights regulation that was discovered due to an investigation conducted for a complaint received. Director provided a tour of the facility. Appropriate ratios were observed . The infant classroom was toured to ensure safety and that the highchairs are compliant with regulations. Facility is currently using 3 wooden highchairs with detachable trays. LPA was able to see that the broken high chair is missing the 4 screws that attach the part that helps keep the child in place. Director stated that when child was placed in the high chair , he was not buckled in, when child moved/rocked the chair the tray fell out with the center part of the high chair, which caused the child to fall out. Director has removed the Broken high chair from the infant room and is currently looking to replace them with lower chairs for infant eating. Facility was cited on 7/14/22 due to using broken cribs and was advised to check and monitor infant equipment which now creates a repeat violation. Facility is also being cited due to a personal rights violation that was discovered during a complaint investigation. There were several witnesses who confirmed staff #1 yells at the children inappropriately for disciplinary purposes.
