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 746.1205(a)(2) in December 2023 and April 2024. The agency describes it this way: Responsibilities of Caregivers - Know number of children responsible for. 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 746.3407(12) in November 2023 and February 2024. The agency describes it this way: Mark Cleaning Supplies, Toxic Materials; Keep Separate from Food and Inaccessible to Children. 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.
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 746.1205(a)(2) was cited, and how do you check it now?
Citation 746.1205(a)(2): cited in two visits, including high-risk standards.
What changed after 746.3407(12) was cited, and how do you check it now?
Citation 746.3407(12): cited in two visits, including high-risk standards.
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.
