How to read this record
A compliance visit is a licensing visit by an OCCL specialist. When the specialist finds a regulation has not been met, the visit record carries a citation: the regulation's code and short description, the specialist's corrective-action note describing what was found, and the correction record — the date correction was due, whether the state has marked it completed, the date it was corrected, and how. A complaint investigation begins with a complaint; its record carries the state's result and the investigator's written conclusion. Delaware does not grade citations by risk or severity, so no grade is shown — the specialist's note is the substance of the record. One visit can produce several citations. A citation the state later records as corrected stays in the history; that is what a licensing record is.

Visits and investigations, newest first
A complaint investigation. The state's result is shown above, and the investigator's conclusion follows.
On October 2, 2026, the Office of Child Care Licensing received a complaint regarding staff being under the influence of drugs and alcohol. An investigation was conducted on October 8, 2026. There is no evidence to substantiate the complaint because the provider stated when they suspected the staff member was not in a condition to care for children, the staff member was asked to leave the Large Family Child Care Home (LFFCH), and employment was terminated later that day when the staff refused to take a drug test. LS #1 also observed a different qualified staff member working at the LFFCH who appeared to be in an acceptable state to care for the children.
