What these words mean4
Inspection (survey)
A visit by state inspectors, often unannounced, who check a place against the rules it must meet. For nursing homes and other places Medicare pays, CMS calls these visits surveys: a standard survey of a nursing home comes at least every 15 months, and a complaint survey whenever a complaint calls for one. Source: CMS; 42 CFR 488.308.
Deficiency, citation, violation
What inspectors write up when a place didn’t meet a rule: the rule, what they saw, and when. CMS calls it a deficiency; states may say citation or violation. It is the inspectors’ finding, not a court’s, and the place is usually asked for a plan to correct it. Source: CMS, statement of deficiencies (Form CMS-2567); each state’s licensing agency.
Licence status
Whether the state’s licence lets the place operate now, in the state’s own words: licensed, on probation (allowed to keep operating on conditions, after problems), provisional, pending or expired. Source: Each state’s licensing agency.
Capacity
The most people the licence or certification lets the place care for at once: residents, children, beds or apartments, as the state counts them. It isn’t how many are there now. Source: Each state’s licensing agency.

Jul 2, 2026OCCL Standards Complaint: No Evidence to SubstantiateOn June 9, 2026, the Office of Child Care Licensing (OCCL) received a complaint regarding not following the menu and not cutting food. An investigation was conducted on June 16, 2026. There is no evidence to substantiate for the center failing to follow its posted menu or that food was not prepared in an age-appropriate manner. During the investigation, staff reported that the grapes referenced in the complaint were provided for a parent event and were not served by the center to children. Staff consistently stated that foods presenting potential choking hazards are modified and prepared according to the age and developmental needs of the children. Staff also reported that menu substitutions are documented when changes occur. Additionally, Licensing Specialist #1 observed the posted menu was being followed and found it to be consistent with required meal pattern standards.

What the record doesn’t say

  • Delaware doesn’t grade violations by severity, so read what was cited.
  • Delaware’s open data lists a visit only when a violation was cited there, so visits that found nothing aren’t shown.
  • Delaware publishes five years of reviews and complaints; this page shows the last three.
  • Delaware doesn’t publish staffing levels or owners for individual providers.
  • Delaware lists only the visits that found violations, so a provider with none listed may not have been visited at all: no count of violations is used to headline, filter or compare its providers.
