Citation Jun 17, 2026 Inspection Building & playground safety
Devices must be compliant/Director or designated staff person ensure compliance 55 Pa. Code §3270.95(a)/3270.95(b)
A renewal inspection was conducted on 6/17/26. The fire drill log indicates that the alarms are tested during each fire drill. The log indicates the alarms were tested more than 30 days apart on three occasions, 10/13/25-11/14/25, 12/10/25-1/15/26, and 3/10/26-4/14/26.
Center’s plan of correction (implemented, Jun 24, 2026): “The fire alarm was tested and logged during the renewal inspection. The system was fully operational. A compliance calendar has been created with recurring reminders to test the fire alarms every 30 days and to prevent lapses.”
Citation Aug 7, 2024 Inspection Records & paperwork
Review policies and procedures 55 Pa. Code §3270.121(a)

Citation Aug 8, 2023 Inspection Health & medication
Mantoux TB/Health assessment, TB test 55 Pa. Code §3270.151(c)(2)/3270.192(3)
While at the facility unannounced on 9/13/23 the inspector observed the file for staff #1 (see LIS Code sheet for date of hire) and found that the staff was hired with a TB screening that was over three years old.
Center’s plan of correction (implemented, Sep 21, 2023): “This was an oversight on the director's behalf. The director will send the staff for the TB screening as soon as possible.”
Core safety Aug 3, 2022 Inspection Background checks
Comply with CPSL 55 Pa. Code §3270.32(a)
While at the facility unannounced on 8/3/22 for the annual inspection the inspector observed the file for staff#1and noted that this staff resided out of Pennsylvania within the last five years and did not have clearances from that state. The Child Protective Services Law(CPSL) was revised to include the requirement for all facility persons, volunteers, and household members who may have resided out of Pennsylvania within the previous five years to obtain a state criminal history check, state sex offender registry check, and a state child abuse and neglect history check from the state (s) in which they resided in the previous five years. This was required beginning September 30, 2019. Current facility persons and volunteers were required to meet these requirements beginning July 1, 2020.
Center’s plan of correction (implemented, Aug 4, 2022): “The staff currently has all four of the required Pennsylvania clearances on hand and they were in place prior to direct care with children. None of the clearances including the FBI noted any issues. This staff was suspended effective 8/3/22 and will not be allowed to return to work until the out of…”

“Core safety” marks citations about supervision and staff ratios, discipline and caregiver conduct, background checks, child protection and safe sleep, the topics our score weights most. Pennsylvania’s records don’t grade violations by severity. “Follow-up” marks a violation re-cited at a follow-up visit, counted once. How scores work.
