##### Regulation 9 — Management and recruitment

- (d) There was 1 staff member working at the service who did not provide evidence of police vetting from a police authority in another state, where she resided for longer than 6 consecutive months

- The person who required police vetting has applied for clearance from her country of origin

##### Regulation 19 — Health, welfare and development of child

- BASIC NEEDS: 1.There was no hot water available at the wash hand basins in the sanitary accommodation. The water pressure in the hot taps was also too low and was reduced to a trickle. To ensure effective and hygienic hand washing for the children, an adequate supply of thermostatically controlled hot water was required at all wash hand basins at all times. 2. The service lacked comfortable seating for adults allowing them space to sit next to children when needed. The preschool room's soft couches were only for children, limiting meaningful staff-child interactions

- 1.Works have been completed at the service to adjust and increase the water pressure in the hot tapes. To ensure hygienic washing of hands the water temperature has been adjusted to ensure it is stable at 39° Celsius. The water heater is on a timer to ensure it is working at all times when the service is operational. 2.Comfortable adult seating has been added to the room to ensure staff and children can sit together and enjoy meaningful interaction time

##### Regulation 22 — Food and drink

- On the day of the inspection, the service provider served a toasted sandwich along with fresh fruit and yogurt for the main meal of the day at 12.30 pm. This was at variance with the healthy eating policy of the service and the foods choices listed on the menu plan, which stated a hot meal would be served each day for children attending the full-day care service

- The registered provider in their reply to the inspection report committed to providing a substantial hot main meal to the children each day at dinnertime

##### Regulation 31 — Notification of incidents

- The registered provider did not notify the Agency in writing of (d) an injury to a child which required medical treatment in a hospital. A registered provider must notify the Agency in writing within 3 working days of any such incident

- The registered provider has committed to ensuring that any accident or incident requiring medical attention will be reported to Tusla within the required 24-hour period
