Inspection history

Every state inspection visit on record for this home, newest first, from New York State's public file. We show the record as it stands and don't grade it.

How to read this record
  • New York State inspects home programs at least once a year unannounced, when the license or registration comes up for renewal, and after complaints. Every visit is listed with its date and result.
  • Violations found means inspectors cited one or more rule violations on that visit. Each one lists the rule, what it requires, and whether the record shows it corrected (fixed) or still uncorrected.
  • The state doesn't publish severity rankings the way the city does for daycare centers. Read the description itself, and ask the provider about anything that worries you.
  • To double-check anything or request the fuller file, open the official state record or get a pre-filled records-request letter, using the buttons under the inspection list. More in our methodology.

Official rule text — what the state requires: The initial medical statement for providers, assistants, and substitutes must include the results of a Mantoux tuberculin test or other federally approved tuberculin test performed within the 12 months preceding the date of the application. Thereafter, tuberculin tests are only required at the discretion of the employee's health care provider or at the start of new employment in a different child care program.

What this means

Records The first medical statement for providers, assistants and substitutes must include the results of a tuberculin test taken within the 12 months before the application. After that, a test is only required at the discretion of the person's health care provider or when the person starts work at a different child care program. The citation concerns that statement. It does not say anyone tested positive.

Worth asking: Is each caregiver's medical statement on file?
