Inspection of 5 March 2026 — Inspection Report
Regulation 15 — Record of pre-school child
- (h) Information in relation to the child’s immunisation status was unavailable or incomplete on 4 of the 10 records reviewed
Provider's corrective action:
- The written reply from the registered provider outlined that the immunisations details have been added to the child records. As a preventive measure, the forms will be checked by the registered provider, before children begin attending in September
Regulation 25 — First aid
- Insufficient first aid supplies were maintained. There were only two triangular bandages available, all of the large size sterile wound dressings were noted to be out of date, only one extra-large wound dressing was available and there were no sterile eye pad dressings provided
Provider's corrective action:
- The missing/expired supplies have been purchased. A staff member has been designated to check the first aid bag in September and once a month there after
Regulation 26 — Fire safety measures
- (a) While it was acknowledged that a fire drill had been undertaken on 16 February 2026, monthly fire drills were not consistently conducted. There were no fire drills recorded for the months of November or December 2025. During subsequent discussion, the registered provider confirmed that no fire drills had been carried out during these months. Fire drills should be conducted on a monthly basis, to ensure that children and staff members are familiar with safe fire evacuation procedures
Provider's corrective action:
- In her written reply, the registered provider stated that fire drills will be completed and recorded once per month. As a preventive measure, a reminder has been added to the service mobile phone, in relation to monthly fire drills
Found compliant: Regulation 9, 11, 19, 22, 23.
