2.06 high-risk violations per inspection, against a county median of 0.50. Lower is better.

Better than 2 out of 100 daycares in Galveston County, and 5 out of 100 across the Houston metro. Rate, not raw count, because a center inspected 17 times will always have more findings on paper than one inspected twice.

Prohibited Punishments - Restrictive device for time out

During my walkthrough of the operation a child was observed to be placed in a high chair while other children were napping. I was informed by cargivers that the child is special needs and he was placed in the high chair becasue he will not lay down and he likes to walkaround during naptime. The child was removed from the restrictive device during the inspection.
