##### Regulation 23 — Safeguarding health, safety and welfare of child

- Infection Control: 1. Thermostatically controlled warm water was not available for hand washing at the wash hand basins in the sanitary accommodation in the Outdoor Pre-school on the first day of inspection. The water in the three hot taps, in addition to the cold taps, felt cold to touch. Cold water does not support pre-school children to effectively wash their hands. 2. One of the two liquid soap dispensers was empty in the sanitary accommodation adjacent to the outdoor play area accessed by the pre-school children attending the Indoor Pre-school Room on the first day of inspection. This did not facilitate the children to wash their hands effectively. 3. In the Indoor Pre-school Room and the 3 to 5 Room, the children’s snacks provided from home, some of which contained meat and dairy produce, were stored in their bags at room temperature on the first day of inspection. This increased the risk of bacteria multiplying in the perishable food items. 4. In the nappy changing area for the 2 to 3 room the bin for disposal of nappies was not pedal operated. The pedal bin in the care room was broke with the lid not lifting. All nappy bins and bins for food and contaminated waste must be pedal operated and have a non-touch mechanism

- Corrective & Preventive Action Infection Control: What actions have you taken to correct the non-compliance? 1. The boiler has been replaced when we were inspected it had already been ordered and now has been installed. 2. When staff open up in the mornings, they will check the outside toilets for supplies and sign and date a sheet to say they have. 3. When staff intend to bring children outside for lunch, they will store the food in the afterschool’s fridge which is in close proximity to the preschool garden. 4. The bins in the nappy room and also the classroom has been replaced. What actions have you taken to prevent the non-compliance in the future? 1. We have implemented a new monthly check system for the boiler to ensure that any signs of wear and tear a new one will be ordered or the current one fixed. 2. Regular inspection of the toilets and to ensure the daily cleaning sheet is being signed. 3. The 3-5 room will no longer permit snacks from home as the space cannot facilitate a fridge. 4. Regular inspection of the bins to ensure they function as supposed too

Found compliant: Regulation 9, 11, 19, 20, 21, 22, 24, 25, 26, 28.
