##### Regulation 9 — Management and recruitment

- (2) (d) The curriculum vitae of one adult did not contain sufficient detail to establish whether they required police vetting or to provide the registered provider with sufficient information to adequately vet the person prior to commencement

- The employee is a community employment participant in an auxiliary role. The employee’s curriculum vitae (CV) has been updated to reflect their employment history, and this CV has been added to the employee’s file. The updated CV has shown that the person did not require any additional information to adequately vet the employee or for a police check to be completed. The recruitment policy has been updated to outline that all employees must provide a Curriculum Vitae detailing all employment roles and dates consecutively with an unbroken career

##### Regulation 23 — Safeguarding health, safety and welfare of child

- General Safety: 1. Garda vetting was available for one staff member. However, this vetting disclosure was not dated within the previous three years in adherence with the Early Years Inspectorate Regulatory Notice ‘EYI-RN12.3 Renewal of Garda Vetting. This posed a potential safeguarding concern. Administration of Medication: 2. Administration of medication practices observed in the service were at variance with best practice and the service’s administration of medication policy. Evidenced by the following. • One child with a diagnosed medical condition which listed a prescribed medication did not have an individual medical care plan available for review in the care room or the office. It is acknowledged that one staff member in the care room was aware of the child’s medical condition and the registered provider discussed how a care plan had been drawn up but must have been misplaced. However, the absence of an individual medical care plan which detailed guidance on administration of medication could have hindered the timely and appropriate administration of medical treatment by staff in the event of a medical emergency. • One child with a diagnosed medical condition which listed a prescribed medication did not have the prescribed medication stored in the original box. This posed a potential safety risk, as the absence of the original box which detailed the name of the child and prescribed dosage could hinder the timely and appropriate administration of medical treatment. Action submitted by the Registered Provider

- General Safety: 1. The renewal of the Garda Vetting was submitted to the Garda Vetting Bureau before it was due for renewal however it was not completed before the inspection. The service received a completed Garda Vetting disclosure for the employee on 8th December 2025. A document containing the expiry date of Garda Vetting and mandatory trainings for all employees is in place to ensure that all remain in date. This document is displayed in the office for ongoing monitoring and ensuring all employees are fully compliant with regulations. Administration of Medication: 2. The care plan for the child is now available for staff in a locked press in the child’s class alongside the prescribed medication to ensure that, when required, the medication is given in an appropriate and timely manner. In relation to the child who did not have their prescribed medication contained in the original box, the service requested a new prescribed medication in the original box from the child’s parents. This was provided by the parents. A copy of a care plan for every individual child is now kept in both a locked press in the child’s class and in the child’s individual file which is located in the office. A copy is also kept on a digital file. The designated First Aid staff member who checks all of the first aid boxes in the service every two months will now check each child’s individual care plan and relevant medication to ensure compliance with the regulation and ensure all is in order
