25 | On 02/02/2021 at 10:25 a.m., Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs), Michelle Hood and Gloria Gonzalez conducted an unannounced Case Management inspection. Upon arrival, LPAs met with licensee, Kimberly Gonzalez and proceeded to tour the inside and outside of the home. During the inspection there were two (2) children in care. Facility operates Monday through Friday; 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
The purpose of today’s inspection is to inspect the pool fencing to determine if the pool fencing meets CCL title 22 regulations. In addition, the licensee is requesting to add a bedroom #1 and bathroom #2, located on the first story of home as an area that will be utilized for the daycare. LPAs obtained an updated indoor facility sketch at time of inspection.
LPAs inspected the backyard pool fencing, bedroom #1 and bathroom #2. The backyard is physically separated between two areas. The pool is located in the corner end of the west side of the backyard. The pool entrance is located near the grassy area of the backyard. LPAs observed the pool gate to be self-closing, self-latching, swings away from the pool and the latch devise placed no lower than 60 inches above the ground. LPA observed the front pool fencing to be 5 feet high with openings on the fence no wider than four inches. The building and fencing on the west side of the pool belongs to the neighbors and there is no egress from the building nor the fencing. In addition, there is no egress from the two sides of the pool fence backyard and the patio area located near the east end of the backyard. The entrance to and from the garage/shed is located on the north side of the backyard and there's no entry into pool area. The garage/shed will be locked during daycare operation. The front pool fencing separating the other areas of the back yard in no way obstructs a complete and clear view of the pool from the outside of the fence. Bedroom #1 has a window that overlooks the pool: however, there is not access to the pool area. During the inspection, LPAs took pictures of the pool fencing and gate. LPAs discussed and reminded Licensee she is responsible for the health and safety of all the children in her care. |
