Regulation 19 — Health, welfare and development of child
- Basic Needs The children from the Butterfly room used the sanitary accommodation next to the main entrance of the building. In the bathroom there were 2 water closets but there was no divider or partition between the 2 toilets. The privacy and the dignity of each child cannot be guaranteed in this area of the service
Provider's corrective action:
- The registered providers have put a partition in place separating both water closets in the bathroom used by the preschool children. This ensures privacy for all children using this facility

Provider's corrective action:
- Infection Control: Pedal operated lidded bins have been purchased for each room of the service to replace the open top bins
