07. Vehicle Requirements CCF Handbook, Section 2.5.4 (07-06)
The vehicle alarm installed was not in working condition. CCF Handbook, Section 2.5.4 General Requirements [SR] Comments: Licensing Specialist did an inspection on the facility's vehicle. Licensing Specialist had the driver, F.D., try to set off the installed vehicle alarm. The alarm never went off. The driver tried to ride around the premises with the children in the vehicle to see if it would go off. The alarm never went off. This is not the first time she has had difficulty with the alarm. Licensing Specialist made the suggestion of taking the vehicle back to whoever installed the alarm and have them take a look. Vehicle was parked directly in front of the facility. 2.5.4 Vehicle Requirements For the purpose of this section, vehicles refer to those owned, operated or regularly used by the child care program, and vehicles that provide transportation through a contract or agreement with an outside entity. Parents/guardians personal vehicles used for transporting during field trips are excluded from meeting the requirements of this sub-section. 4. Alarm systems installed according to the manufacturers instructions prior to October 1, 2021, will be deemed to satisfy this requirement if they meet the criteria set forth in 2.5.4.F.1. above. Under this allowance, the existing alarm system must always be properly maintained in working order. Should at any time the alarm system require replacement, the new system must be selected from the Departments approved list referenced in 2.5.4 F.2. above. Source: FL DCF CARES inspection 2024-12-19.
