Medication

WAC 110-300-0215(3)(a)(i) · Serious

Child file reviewed had a blank health history and when inquired the licensor was informed that the child had asthma. There was no documentation of asthma on paperwork nor was there a asthma plan in the child's file. Will also need to ensure that medication for the child is present and quickly accessible during child care hours if the child is in the child care space.

Emergency preparation and exiting

WAC 110-300-0166(3)(a) / 110-300-0166(4)(c)(i) · Serious

Current doors have deadbolts and a lever knob with no lock on it. The doors were locked during the visit. The doors front and back will need to remain open along with exit windows from each room during child care hours. Licensor discussed the change of the door knob so that it is locked to the person that is standing outside of the home but can be easily unlocked with just the twist of the knob.
