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.
“The operation did not document fire drills that have been previously conducted. This was corrected during the inspection.”
“It was determined that a staff member was allowed to smoke in the parking lot of the operation.”
“6 childrens files did not have the addresses listed for the emergency contacts.”
“10 children's files reviewed did not have the updated Special Needs Statement.”
“The operation does not have a current fire inspection.”
“Based on evidence obtained during an DFPS investigation, there was Reason to Believe that physical abuse occurred as a caregiver struck a child multiple times in the face. During re-direction, a child hit his head on the ground which could have resulted in serious physical harm or injury to the child.”
“Based on evidence obtained during a DFPS investigation, caregivers observed physical abuse of a child and reported the abuse to the director who took no action. The caregivers also did not report the abuse.”
“Based on evidence obtained during a DFPS investigation, a caregiver inappropriately re-directed children in care by grabbing them by the arm or elbow area in an attempt to lead the children to where they needed to go. A caregiver grabbed a child by the arm while the child was in a seated position and attempted to re-direct the child, making the child cry.”
“Based on evidence obtained during a DFPS investigation, it was determined that a caregiver yelled at children as a form of discipline. A caregiver put her pointer finger in a child?s face and instructed the child to stop crying. A caregiver put her head face to face with a child as a form of discipline to get the child to listen.”
“Two children did not have a food allergy plan signed by the parent.”
“Three garbage cans were observed without lids and containing remnants of food.”
“One vehicle that transports children did not have a properly working child safety alarm.”
“One transportation bus did not contain a first aid kit. Three transportation buses did contain scissors, tweezers, cotton balls or thermometers.”
“An employee file was missing a notarized affidavit.”
“Based on information gathered, it was determined that the operation did not report to Licensing that an employee had tested positive for the Corona Virus in the specified time frame required for such notifications.”
