Conditions at the facility may not pose a threat to the health or safety of the children. The OCDEL ANNOUNCEMENT C-22-04 requires facility emergency plans to include continuity of operations during and after an emergency that includes continuing daily operations, backing up or retrieving health and other key records/files and managing financial issues such as paying employees and bills during the aftermath of the disaster. Correction: Attached is the addendum added to our emergency plan March 2025. This was submitted last year (2025) and was in the folder with the emergency plan. It has now been stapled to the emergency plan and is not a loose paper. The emergency plan is now in a binder and stored in a visible area (windowsill by door) for both parents and staff to view. (Attached to review) Inspection: Renewal. Source: PA DHS COMPASS provider search (compass.dhs.pa.gov).
