Connecticut’s Office of Early Childhood publishes each violation it cites, not a risk level for it.
Context
A repeated citation can merit attention, but context and corrective action must be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.
OEC licensing staff cited 19a-79-7a(g)(4) and/or 19a-79-7a(h) in November 2012, September 2016 and October 2019. The agency describes it this way: Playground Free From Hazards. Connecticut does not publish a risk level for each violation. OEC does not publish when a violation was corrected, so it is worth asking what changed after each one.
OEC licensing staff cited 19a-79-9a(b)(3) and/or 19a-79-9a(b)(4) in May 2015 and February 2016. The agency describes it this way: Oral/Topical/Inhalant/Injectable Medications: Authorized Prescriber/Parent Permission/MAR. Connecticut does not publish a risk level for each violation. OEC does not publish when a violation was corrected, so it is worth asking what changed after each one.
For Your Next Visit
Bring these to the tour. Each one comes from something in the record; the reason is under the question.
What changed after 19a-79-7a(g)(4) and/or 19a-79-7a(h) was cited, and how do you check it now?
Playground Free From Hazards: cited in three visits, with no risk level published.
What changed after 19a-79-9a(b)(3) and/or 19a-79-9a(b)(4) was cited, and how do you check it now?
Citation 19a-79-9a(b)(3) and/or 19a-79-9a(b)(4): cited in two visits, with no risk level published.
What is the ratio in the room my child would join, and how is every child accounted for at nap time, pickup and on the playground?
Ratios change through the day, so they are worth counting yourself on a visit.
Has the center ever been referred for legal action or put on a corrective plan, and what changed afterward?
OEC’s files list no enforcement action in this window.
