The following discussions were provided:
- Licensing observed documentation in the minor incident log book. A discussion was had with the manager about what would be considered a minor incident and to ensure when documenting to include the five W's (who, what, when, where, why, how).
- Licensing noted a care plan in place for a child with allergies. The emergency medication for the child is in another language. Licensing recommends medication to have an English translation so that the medication can be administered correctly by staff.
- Licensing observed a staff wipe down the tables after snack with soap and water. A discussion was had with the manager ensuring that a sanitization procedure is completed after to mitigate the spread of Communicable Diseases.
