Orientation, What Is Covered? MICHIGAN
The title pretty much covers it lol. My orientation is on the 17th. I have not found much on what is going to be covered. If anyone would like to clue me it I would appreciate it very much.

Mainly you go over the rules. My class get a ratio exercise and I think a safety exercise. We were able to ask questions and have explanations to rules that we didn't understand.
My recommendation would be read through the rules and write down any questions you have on a certain rule and the reference number of the rule. I think if you go to Michigan website you can search orientation and you'll see the PowerPoint for orientation. My class worked through lunch and got done early. |
Thanks:)

I'm geating some conflicting info. I was told that I could take clients after my orientation. Now I am told I have to wait until after my inspection. It seems like the answer changes depending on who answers the darn phone:(
This is a home daycare. |

This law changes rules for family care making them licensed vs. registered. And making it their inspections beforehand instead of after opening. Plus some other things that change but I'm not sure if it went into effect yet. So call again and ask if the law went into effect and then ask if you get an inspection before hand. |
What about an assistant? When I read the rules book it did not say I am required to have assistant. But I just printed off my orientation check list and it sort of reads like I am required to provide an adult assistant that is CPR first aid trained.
So it sounds like I have to have an employee on call? |

I also have my dh as my assistant, he can cover for me if I have to leave early or to sick to care. He does have a background check and CPR (plus the other stuff). But during the day he unavailable for emergency back up, as he works. If this does not answer your question please post the rule number, so I can look into it. |
Yes it does, thank you. I have put my husband down as my emergency assistant. I mean if there were a serious emergency he would be coming home anyways.
So he will do his CPR class in two weeks and they already have his info on file. |
Where is the best place to go to complete your 10 hours of yearly training?
