Cleanliness & sanitation
The operation has a strong written transportation emergency preparedness plan which includes procedures for restroom emergencies while in transport. However, the policies were not followed as there were no planned restroom stops for a field trip that was about an hour and a half drive away. The policies also were not followed when a child urgently had to go to the bathroom. While information gathered in the investigation indicated staff could not pull over at the time due to stand still traffic, they also did not follow their policies by pulling over when they safely could as the child ended up going on the bus as they were unable to hold it. While the parents were notified of the incident and all parents notified of arrival at the center being delayed from the field trip due to traffic, the director was not notified immediately of the restroom emergency by staff which is in their policies.
