25 | On 8/18/21, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jessika Thompson met with Licensee Mary Ervin for an unannounced Case Management Incident inspection. LPA toured the facility and a census was taken; also present was the licensee's assistant.
An Unusual Incident was recently reported to the Community Care Licensing Division (CCLD) regarding ratio non-compliance occurring within the Mary Ervin Family Child Care Home (FCCH). The purpose of today's inspection was to review and address this incident. On 8/12/21 Licensee reported to CCLD that she had been out of ratio a few times in the month of June 2021. Licensee stated that once summer vacation began, one of her school age children began arriving to care at around 12:00 PM, while she and her assistant were already providing care to four infants, eight preschoolers and one additional school age child, resulting in her FCCH being out of compliance for a few hours on occasion. Licensee stated that after being notified that she was out of ratio by the food program, she realized her error, and in the month of July of 2021, one infant was dis-enrolled, bringing her back into compliance.
Today LPA thoroughly reviewed ratio requirements with Licensee and provided her with pertinent handouts. Licensee understands that she can only have a total of three infants in care when her total capacity reaches 14 (when an assistant is present).
Per Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 3, of the California Code of Regulations, the following deficiency is being cited: (see next page, LIC809-D) Licensee was provided a copy of their appeal rights.
This report shall be made available to the public upon request. LIC 9213 Notice of Site Visit was provided and is required to be posted for 30 days.
