Section 935-72.0 - Diapering for Parenting Adolescent Facilities

72.1 A licensee shall ensure a facility has a diaper-changing area with a clean, washable, and non-absorbent surface that shall not be located in the kitchen area. There shall be a separate hand-washing sink with running warm water within 5 feet of the changing area. The diaper-changing area shall be cleaned with soap and water and then disinfected after each use.

72.2 A licensee shall ensure that used disposable diapers are placed in a foot-activated container that is used exclusively for diapers, lined with a leak-proof or impervious liner, within arm's reach of the changing area, inaccessible to children, and sanitized daily. Diapers shall be removed from the facility daily or more frequently if needed to prevent accumulation of odors, and placed in a closed container that is outside the building and used for trash collection.

72.3 A licensee shall ensure people who change diapers wash their hands and the child's hands afterward.
