Texas gives every licensing standard one of five risk levels, from low to high, by how likely a deficiency is to harm a child.
Context
A repeated citation can merit attention, but context and corrective action must be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.
HHSC inspectors cited 746.3417(3) in November 2023 and December 2023. The agency describes it this way: Children Handwashing After Toileting or Diapering. None rose above medium-high risk. Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.
HHSC inspectors cited 746.3701 in December 2022 and October 2024. The agency describes it this way: Safety - Areas Free From Hazards. None rose above medium-high risk. Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.
HHSC inspectors cited 746.603(a)(2) in October 2024 and October 2024. The agency describes it this way: Children's Records - Admission Information. None rose above medium risk. Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.
HHSC inspectors cited 746.605(11) in September 2024 and September 2026. The agency describes it this way: Required Admission Information - Emergency Medical Authorization. The most serious of these was recorded at high risk. Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.
HHSC inspectors cited 746.901 in October 2024 and September 2026. The agency describes it this way: Required Personnel Records. None rose above medium risk. Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.
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 746.3417(3) was cited, and how do you check it now?
Children Handwashing After Toileting or Diapering: cited in two visits, most seriously at medium-high risk.
What changed after 746.3701 was cited, and how do you check it now?
Safety - Areas Free From Hazards: cited in two visits, most seriously at medium-high risk.
What changed after 746.603(a)(2) was cited, and how do you check it now?
Children's Records - Admission Information: cited in two visits, most seriously at medium risk.
What changed after 746.605(11) was cited, and how do you check it now?
Citation 746.605(11): cited in two visits, including high-risk standards.
What changed after 746.901 was cited, and how do you check it now?
Required Personnel Records: cited in two visits, most seriously at medium risk.
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 under corrective or adverse action, and what changed afterward?
HHSC’s files name no enforcement action in this window. They say whether a program is under corrective or adverse action, not what the action was.
