DESCRIPTION OF FINDINGS & CONCLUSIONS
This renewal inspection involved a review of all applicable child care center
administrative rules and statutes. Verification of compliance included direct
observations of the physical environment and the program, discussions with staff,
and a review of the center’s records, including staff records and children’s records.
Staff records include background checks, medical clearance information, and
training information. Children’s records include child information cards, physical
examination dates, and immunizations.
During the inspection, the center was found to be in compliance with all applicable
rules and statutes except for the following violations:
R 400.5113b
Medication; administrative procedures.
(4) Prescription medication shall have the pharmacy label
indicating the physician’s name, child’s name, instructions, and

according to those instructions.
A child’s epi-pen did not have the pharmacy label with the required information.
R 400.5850
Electrical service.
(5) All electrical outlets in child use areas for children who are
not yet school-age shall be made inaccessible to children.
The electrical outlets in the gym were not covered and were easily accessible to
preschool children.

(2) Guidelines for hand washing shall be posted in food
preparation areas and toilet rooms.
Guidelines for hand washing were not posted in the toilet rooms used by children in

that the corrective action plan be implemented within the specified time frames as
outlined in the approved plan. A follow-up evaluation may be made to verify
