Violations
Text reproduced verbatim · Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Child Care RegulationNearly every licensed provider accumulates some. A missing signature and an unlocked medicine cabinet are both “violations”, and they are not the same thing. Look at the class, the pattern over time and how quickly it was corrected — not the count alone.
Class is our grouping of the state’s own weights, reviewed per state. The agency’s own label is always shown beside it.
“A caregiver does not have current pediatric CPR training.”
“The emergency preparedness plan did not include procedures for evacuating with essential documentation such as parent contact information and emergency medical authorization for each child that would be present during an emergency evacuation. Have this information prevent posing a child at risk and providing parent notification.”
“A caregiver does not have current pediatric first aid training.”
“The current health inspection report was not available.”
“Three caregivers did not have a pre-affidavit of employment on file.”
“Four caregivers annual training certificates were not available for CCR to review.”
“The emergency preparedness plan did not include procedures for evacuating with essential documentation such as parent contact information and emergency medical authorization for each child that would be present during an emergency evacuation. Have this information prevent posing a child at risk and providing parent notification.”
“Based on the interviews with the staff, parent, child witness, the victim, and the video, the operation was found not to be in compliance with the standard evaluated. A young child found a small round object in the gym and placed the small round object in their nose. The young child received treatment from a health care professional to retrieve the small object out of the young child's nostril.”
“A child in a primary classroom was asleep on their cot placed in front of the back door. This was corrected at inspection when the caregiver moved the child to a different area in the room.”
“A primary classroom had a curtain hanging over the window causing the room not to have adequeate light in the classroom during naptime.This was corrected at inspection when the caregiver removed the curtain from the window.”
“A classroom reduced the ratio by 50% with a 12 month old present in the group ranging from 12 to 24 months. The ratio was 9 to 1. Ratios during nap time can only be reduced by 50% for children 18 months and older in a group. The deficiency was corrected during the inspection when a second teacher was placed in the classroom to supervise the children.”
“A child did not have shot records on file.”
“The equipment support post were not marked to ensure the surfacing is maintained at the appropropriate depth.”
“A child did not have a health statement on file. The health statement validate that the child has been examined by a health care professional and is health to participate in a child care program.”
“A classroom reduced the ratio by 50% with a 12 month old present in the group ranging from 12 to 24 months. The ratio was 10 to 1. Ratios during nap time can only be reduced by 50% for children 18 months and older in a group. The deficiency was corrected during the inspection when a second teacher was placed in the classroom to supervise 10 children ranging from 12 to 24 months.”
“Three of the four infants had current feeding schedules. This was corrected at inspection when the parent emailed a copy of the missing feeding schedule for the one infant who did not have a current feeding schedule.”
“The director completed 15.5 hours of annual training.”
“This standard was tasked over for this investigation and found to be deficient. After review of the video footage from the date and time of the allegation, it was determined that the caregiver did somewhat hit or smack the child on his side leg before picking him up and taking over the sink. At the time of the investigation inspection compliance had already been met, as the caregiver was dismissed immediately following the incident the day before. A new caregiver is now present in the classroom and additional training has been provided to the caregivers.”
“At the time of inspection, two children did not have their most current immunization records on file for review, according to the age.”
“The school's last fire inspection by a local fire marshal with the City of McKinney was on 6/23/21. No other fire inspection has been conducted at the center at this time.”
“At the time of inspection the playground area where the slide/climb play structure is located has rubber mulch that below the required 6 inches for the height of the structure.”
“The governing failed to inform Childcare Regulation that there was a change in director.”
