AP Child-care administrator responsibilities- Ensure the operation complies with current heightened monitoring plans, if applicable.
HighDuring a review conducted on March 31, 2023, it was determined that: (1) your operation?s administrator failed to ensure compliance with the current HM Plan(s); and (2) more than 12 months had elapsed since the effective date of the plan. As you know, the heightened monitoring plans for your operation included a specific ?planned end date? at the original 12-month mark by which your operation was expected to meet all heightened monitoring criteria necessary to move out of active heightened monitoring to a phase of ?post plan monitoring.? As a direct result of the administrator?s failure to ensure timely compliance with heightened monitoring plans, your operation was unable to successfully move to post-plan monitoring by the original ?planned end date? necessitating previous extension. Furthermore, due to your recent citation issued on September 22, 2022, your operation?s ?planned end date? must now be revised again, and the period of heightened monitoring must be extended again. Further details of the administrator?s failure to ensure compliance include the following: Your operation received a high-weighted citation in a pattern/trend category on September 22, 2022. Specifically, the operation was cited for 748.685(a)(5) Caregiver responsibility - being able to intervene when necessary to ensure child's safety. The operation met compliance on October 7, 2022. - Operation failed to demonstrate 6 months of successive compliance with the standard and contract requirements that led to heightened monitoring. - Operation was unable to meet compliance with Medium-High or High weighted licensing citations. Finding: 748.535(2) ? The licensed administrator must ensure the operation complies with current heightened monitoring plans.
