Inspection of 15 July 2024 — Inspection Report
Regulation 23 — Safeguarding health, safety and welfare of child
- Infection Control: Warm running water was not available at two of the wash hand basins; in the nappy changing room, the water temperature was recorded at 16.80C and in the staff sanitary facility, a water temperature reading of 16.90C was taken. Cold water temperatures may impede effective handwashing. This was also found at the previous inspection on 28 November 2022. The CAPA response at the time stated that the hot water had been fixed and that a plan was in place to upgrade the plumbing system. However, this remained an issue. Action submitted by the Registered Provider
Provider's corrective action:
- The written reply stated that the issue has been resolved and that there is hot water available in all of the toilet facilities. The registered provider will ensure that action is taken if there are issues with the warm water in future
Regulation 25 — First aid
- (1) On the day of inspection, an adult with current FAR training was not available to the children between 7.30am and 11.00am.

However, a FAR trained adult is required to be available to the children at all times
Provider's corrective action:
- The registered provider has confirmed that a staff member with up-to-date First Aid Response training will always be available at the service and has stated that she will continue to ensure that First Aid training is part of staff training
