On 8/31/22 at 2PM, Licensing Program Analysts (LPA) Snow & Laird conducted an unannounced case management in response to a self-report that was made in a timely manner; the incident occurred on 8/26/22 and was called in the following business day (8/29/22) and also submitted in writing on 8/29/22. The LPA’s met with site supervisor Jodie Duggins who was present at the time of incident but did not observe it. The self-report stated that according to Staff (S1) ‘the child (C1) spit at her and S1 reacted by striking C1’s face w/open palm. No physical injury or mark”. The LPA interviewed the parents of C1 and they did not confirm injury. The teacher S1 self-reported the incident and was placed on administrative leave. On 8/31/22 the LPA’s interviewed 3 staff who (have worked with S1 for 10 ,20 years and) they stated that C1 did not appear injured and S1 has never handled children roughly before this isolated incident.

Based on the self report and interviews obtained, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore a violation for personal rights was cited during today’s inspection.
The following violation of the California Code of Regulations, Title 22; Division 12, was observed: see LIC 9099D. Reports citing Type A violations are to be provided to parents/guardians of children currently in enrolled and to parents/guardians of children newly enrolled at the facility during the next 12 months. Parents/guardians must sign Form LIC9224 to be kept in each child's file. Notice of Site Visit shall be posted for 30 days from today’s visit.
