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

- Infection Control: Some areas of the care room were observed to be heavily soiled and required a deep clean to restore appropriate hygiene standards. Staff stated that cleaning schedules were not in place and advised that floors and tables were cleaned down following each session. The following areas were identified as requiring attention: - Skirting boards were soiled with a visible build-up of dirt and dust. - The kitchen units and fridge had a noticeable build-up of residue. - An internal door had an accumulation of dirt and sticky residue on the surface. - Children’s fabric seating was visibly soiled and stained. Ineffective cleaning of children’s care rooms can pose a risk of cross contamination and illness to a child. Action submitted by the Registered Provider

- Infection Control: The registered provider has carried out a deep clean of the service and painted the care rooms. Going forward a deep clean of the care rooms to include floors, doors, sofas, tables, chairs, equipment and toys will be completed every Friday. Additionally, tables, floors, skirting boards, dado rails and the fridge will be cleaned daily

##### Regulation 29 — Premises

- (d) 1. The fence to the rear of the outdoor play area was damaged presenting a potential safety hazard for children. One panel of the fence detached from the supporting posts, creating a gap large enough for a child to pass through. Beyond this opening is an area containing dense shrubbery, scattered wooden debris and a broken slide. 2. An area of damaged plaster was observed exposing a hole in the wall next to the skirting board in the care room. The plaster had uneven edges and a visible build-up of dirt and dust. Ineffective maintenance of the premises creates hazards and can compromise the safety and wellbeing of children

- 1. The fence to the rear of the outdoor play area has been repaired and the panel has been secured to the post. 2. The damaged plaster has been repaired. A thorough examination of all areas in the garden will take place every Monday to ensure the area is safe

Found compliant: Regulation 9, 11, 19, 25, 26, 28.
