“Menus shall be in writing and shall be posted at least one week in advance in an area accessible for review by the child's authorized representative. Copies of the menus as served shall be dated and kept on file for at least 30 days. Menus shall be made available for review by the child's authorized representative and the Department upon request. This requirement was not met as evidenced by: Based on the LPA's observation on 09/15/2026 and interview with the Center Director, the facility did not ensure that a current written menu was posted and available for review. During a tour of the facility, the LPA observed that the menu posted near the facility's main entrance was dated August 2025. When asked to provide the current menu, the Center Director stated that a current menu was not available and acknowledged that no current written menu was available for review. This poses a potential risk to the health and safety of children in care”

Shortlist replaces people’s names in the state’s text with initials. This is done by rule, not by hand, so it can miss a name or shorten a word that isn’t one. The state’s report, linked on each row, has the original.
