Based on observation the licensee did not comply with the section cited above. Today, LPA observed a rusted pool latch (gate near the swing set, near back of the yard), preventing the self-latching mechanism to work properly. The gate had a lock on it today and this gate was only accessible through a separate gate that was latched today, making this area inaccessible. In addition, LPA observed two-fold up tables placed against the pool fence causing a potential climbing hazard for children to get to the pool. This poses a potential health, safety or personal rights risk to persons in care.
A correction plan is recorded. No state verification date is shown.
Recorded plan of correction
Although the gate that had the rust and non-functioning self-latching mechanism was inaccessible due to a separate gate, LPA advised that all parts of the pool gate should be functioning and self-latching as stated in the regulation. Today, Licensee oiled the self-latching mechanism, and it became functional again upon LPA re-inspecting it. Licensee removed the fold up tables and stated she would not place any items against the pool fence that children could use to climb over. Licensee also completed a statement indicating she would inspect her gates and pool fence regularly to ensure everything was functioning and safe. LPA collected this statement. Deficiency cleared today.
