At the time of inspection, the licensor observed a staff member with an expired food handler card. The licensor explained that maintaining a current and valid food worker card is required for all staff who participate in any food-related activities. This includes, but is not limited to, assisting children with opening food packages, handling or preparing food items such as peeling fruit, and serving beverages such as water or juice, as well as distributing meals. The licensor further clarified that even minimal involvement in food handling or service requires valid certification to ensure proper food safety practices are followed. The licensor instructed the facility to ensure the staff member renews their certification without delay and to conduct a review of all staff records to confirm that food worker cards are current. The facility was also advised to implement a system for monitoring certification expiration dates to prevent future lapses and maintain ongoing compliance with food safety requirements.· April 15, 2026
