Observation. Upon review of a sampling of employee records, it was noted that two required immunization status statements regarding BC Immunization Schedule, including COVID-19 vaccination status. All other necessary records were present and up-to-date. Immunization status of employees is required to be on file so that it easy to identify who may not be able to work if there is an outbreak in the facility. Notify Licensing of the addition of this information in the employee records on or by December 12, 2025. It was noted, after documentation review and discussion with the Manager, that the Emergency Preparedness Plan Practice has not yet been conducted for 2025. This is overdue, as the last practice was June of 2024 and must be practiced at least once every 12 months or less. Emergency Preparedness Plans must be practiced annually in order to ensure that employees and children are familiar with the plan, and to allow opportunity to test and review the plan to ensure effectiveness. Notify Licensing of completion of this practice on or by December 12, 2025.
