Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Brannon and Iglesias conducted an unannounced complaint inspection to provide findings for the above allegation. LPA met with Sub Assistant Director, Maribel Rodriguez. LPA reviewed the allegation, and toured the facility, inside and outside. LPA observed 39 school age children with 7 staff.
Findings reveal that facility did pick up child from school, however, facility did leave child at school. Bus driver left the school grounds and did return to the school to pick up child #1. During this time, child was not left alone and was taken to the school office. School personal called and spoke with parent. LPA was unable to provide a complete investigation due to not being able to interview staff or review complete documentation.
Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated.
Per California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 12, Chapter1, no deficiency is cited during today’s visit. Exit interview conducted with the director, name. Appeal rights were provided. A Notice of Site Visit was provided.
A COPY OF THIS REPORT IS TO REMAIN IN THE FACILITY FOR PUBLIC REVIEW.
THIS REPORT SHALL BE MADE AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC UPON REQUEST.
