On 9/6/19 at 1:49 PM Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Angelica Ramirez conducted a case-management deficiencies inspection to cite violations observed on 08/28/2019. Upon arrival LPA observed 15 Infants with four teachers. LPA met with director Catherine Taylor and advised the purpose of the visit. Director Taylor guided the LPA on a tour of the facility.

During the 8/28/19 inspection LPA Ramirez observed the facility failed to notify the department of a change in facility director within the 10-day allotment and the director does not meet the qualification requirements to be an infant director, this will result in two Type B deficiencies. The facility also failed to associate Director Catherine Taylor’s criminal record clearance to the facility, this will result in a Type A citation. A civil penalty will also be assessed. LPA discussed the Technical Support Program (TSP) with Director Catherine Taylor and advised a referral would be submitted for the licensed facility.

Type A and Type B deficiencies were cited during today's inspection (see LIC 809Ds).
Each report (documenting a Type A citation) shall remain posted for 30 days along with the Notice of Site Visit (printed out during this inspection).

**In addition; A copy of this report must be provided to the authorized representatives of all currently enrolled children and any newly enrolled child for the following 12 months.
The ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF RECEIPT OF LICENSING REPORTS (LIC9224) shall be signed and kept in each of the children’s records. The report shall be provided no later than the next business day or the next day the child is in care.

An exit interview was conducted with Director Catherine Taylor. A copy of this report, notice of site visit, and appeal rights were provided to the director.
