What these words mean5
- 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.
- Texas’s risk levels
- Texas gives each child care deficiency a risk level, by how likely it is to harm a child: Low, Medium Low, Medium, Medium High or High. High is its most serious. Source: Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Child Care Regulation.
- 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.

Responsibilities of Caregivers - Intervene to ensure each child’s safety
The inspectors’ words, 118 words
“Based on the findings of a DFPS investigation a caregiver did not intervene to ensure safety by picking up a barefoot child or by stopping to put the child’s shoes on instead of continuing to walk across hot pavement when they noticed the child’s shoes were not on. The child’s feet sustained burns. Prior to transitioning from the playground back to class supervision was not maintained on the playground as caregivers sat down on the playground and were not walking around and intervening where appropriate. They were not ensuring this child’s shoes (and others stayed on) or seek assistance. More than one child walked back to class without shoes on when transitioning from the playground back to class.”
