6400.46(b) | Direct Service Worker #2, #3 and #4 were not provided annual training in fire safety during training year 1/1/21 through 12/31/21. | Program specialists and direct service workers shall be trained annually by a fire safety expert in the training areas specified in subsection (a). | TTSR was unable to conduct its annual fire safety training for all staff and individuals within the agency during January of 2021. The reason for not being able to offer this training was due to the COVID-19 pandemic and state and local regulations prohibiting gathering s of people over a certain number as well as the uncertainty and severity of the virus and pandemic itself. Also during this time when TTSR normally has its annual fire safety training for all staff and individuals, Clarion County was experiencing high numbers of confirmed COVID cases throughout the area. It was deemed necessary to cancel the scheduled trainings in order to keep both the individuals and staff safe from the virus and pandemic. At the time the decision was made to cancel the annual fire safety training, TTSR was unaware that there were oversight approved videos that could be watched in lieu of a formal face to face training as TTSR is accustomed to doing. TTSR was successfully able to complete and offer the annual fire safety which took place on January 10th and 11th , 2022 and we, as an agency, are compliant until January of 2023. In the event that TTSR is unable to, in the future, conduct mandatory trainings in order to compliance in whatever area is needed, TTSR is looking to purchase Fire Safety videos that are ODP approved and meet the requirements for for compliance as it relates to 55 PA Code Chapter 6400.113(a). TTSR has already purchased fire safety videos called ¿Fire Safety Training, Training For Anyone Including Individuals With Developmental Disabilities And For Persons Providing Them Services¿. These videos are distributed by Program Development Associates (www.Disability Training.com) and will be maintained at each site and will be used in the event that TTSR can not conduct our Annual Fire Safety Training face to face and in large numbers. TTSR is also looking into a company named Reliant to research what offerings they have in the event that we can not offer Fire Safety training in-person and need to seek approved fire safety trainings on-line for both staff and individuals. Lastly, TTSR is looking into videos called, ¿Get Out Alive¿ which we were told were ODp approved videos that meet requirements for fire safety training for both individuals and staff. |
