25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Redmond conducted an unannounced, Complaint Investigation visit, on 08/13, 0821 and 08/27/2019.
During the course of the investigation, LPA met with Silvia Lee-Olortegui, Licensee on each day. LPA conducted interviews of the Licensee, her husband (who assists in the facility), a staff person working at the facility on that date and parents of children who have been enrolled at the facility over the past three years. During interviews, LPA determined that Licensee, was dishonest when asked questions about the following issues:
102402 (a)(3) - Revocation or Suspension of a License or Registration
1. At or about June through first week of July 2019, Licensee and her husband went on vacation. When LPA asked Licensee about at first denied going on vacation, LPA obtained information that the facility was closed for approximately one week.
2. When LPA asked Licensee if the facility was open or closed while the Licensee was on vacation, Licensee initially denied being opened. LPA obtained information that the Licensee was opened while the Licensee was on vacation at that at least one staff person was left providing care and supervision to the children in care at the facility.
3. When LPA asked Licensee if a third person (identified during interviews) had access to and or was left alone with children in care at the facility, the Licensee and staff person denied that a person had access to and was left alone with children in care at the facility. LPA obtained information that there was a third, female having access to and being left alone with children at the facility. This person does not have a criminal background clearance and is not associated to the facility. This is a ZERO TOLERANCE violation. Therefore, the Licensee has been cited and assessed civil penalties - $100 per day for a maximum of 5 days = $500.
