Written Consistent Care Plan
 
  • 22VAC40-185-350. Staff-to-children ratio and group size requirements.: subsection F

  • Life happens and at many times there are factors that we as human beings cannot control. Someone may get sick, there could be a family emergency, or there could be a life changing event for someone that may restrict them from attending their job. We are not stating that there wouldn’t be consistency in each classroom everyday however to require a written policy to make things set in stone is not only unrealistic but would cause problems and confusion to the parents who wouldn’t have known any different. The children in each class will always have someone to make sure their care is always constant and safe.
