25 | On April 19, 2023 Licensing Program Analysts (LPA’s) Monique Ayala met with director Tamer Pinelo, for the purpose to conduct a Case Management inspection to ensure the health and welfare of the children in care. A COVID-19 risk assessment was conducted prior to entering the facility.
Upon arrival LPA observed 26 children in care, with 7 staff providing care and supervision. LPA observed that 2 out of the 7 staff members do not have fingerprint clearances. Jade Oakley was observed to be providing care and supervision in the older infant classroom during nap time. Manuela Plascencia was also observed providing care and supervision in the older infant classroom during nap time. Per director the 2 uncleared adults have been at the facility for 2 days; 1 day this week and 1 day two weeks ago. LPA verified on Guardian that the 2 adults do not have fingerprint clearances.
Based on observation and record review the facility is being cited a Type A deficiency in accordance with Title 22 Regulations, 101216(i)(1), (see LIC809D). A copy of this report shall be provided to the parent/guardian of children currently enrolled by the next business day or immediately upon return.

An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report was to director along with Notice of Site Visit and Appeal Rights. |
