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

- General Safety: 1. In the preschool room, cleaning products were stored in a low unlocked cupboard, the cupboard was accessible to children. It is acknowledged that a staff member moved the products to a high shelf when the inspector brought it to their attention. This poses a potential risk of harm to children if they assessed them. 2. In room one and in the preschool room the restrictors on the windows had been unhooked and were therefore ineffective. The windows were accessible to children and were observed to open widely. This could cause potential harm to a child if they accessed them. Infection Control: 3. Appropriate infection control measures were not taken during nappy changing. The changing mat was not cleaned after each use. This poses a significant risk of cross contamination to children. Action submitted by the Registered Provider

- General Safety: The registered provider has stated that: 1. All cleaning products have been placed out of reach of children on a high shelf. A full audit of the cleaning storage across the service has been completed and a safety check list will be completed each morning to ensure cleaning product are safely stored. 2. An updated safety checklist has been developed to include the window restrictors. Staff members have received refresher training guidance on using the window restrictors. Infection Control: 3.
