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 February 4, 2022, a complaint was called into the Office of Child Care Licensing (OCCL). The reporter stated there had been several kids who had tested positive with COVID-19 and Administrator Laura Mock, had not been following protocols as required by the Governor s State of Emergency. All staff who were observed at the center had a mask on, as well as all the children ages three years of age and older. The reporter stated the center had failed to notify other parents of the children coming into close contact with someone who has tested positive, and Laura Mock was agreeing to let children stay in care, although they were sick. Based on the administrator s statements as well as all documentation provided to LS Brady regarding children s exposure to Covid-19, the center was following the proper guidelines regarding Covid-19.
