The city's wording
15 hours of training Not completed in 24 months. At least 5 hours of training Not conducted in each 12 month period. Required topics Not covered.
This is the text DOHMH or the state attaches to the citation. It is a template, so it can sound harsher or vaguer than the finding behind it.
Worth asking the center
How many training hours has each staff member completed in the last two years?
Reading it on a record
Look at whether the citation is marked open or corrected, how long ago it was cited, and whether the same section shows up on several inspections. One corrected citation is common. The same one on visit after visit is worth a direct question. Our guide to checking a daycare and methodology explain the rest.
