25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Patricia Duron conducted a Case Management Inspection to investigate an Unusual Incident Report (UIR) which was self-reported to our office on 7-13-23. Upon entry to the facility, LPA Duron met with Director, Natalia Huerta. LPA observed 27 school age children in care with 7 school age staff members providing care and supervision. During the inspection it was determined the facility is operating within its licensed capacity and within compliance of staffing ratios. A review of the Facility Personnel Report Summary on this date indicates all facility staff or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse index clearances or exemptions.
The Self-reported incident received on 7-13-23 stated Child 1 (C1) was touched inappropriately by Child 2 (C2) inside the facility at the carpet area, as children watched TV. During today's inspection LPA Duron interviewed 3 staff members and 4 children. Based on information that was obtained at the facility, S1 walked away to get a drink of water, when S1 returned, C1 informed S1 that C2 touched child inappropriately. S1 immediately informed S2 of incident. S2 spoke to C1 and C2 individually. S2 informed C1 and C2 parents/authorized representatives. C2 was picked up from school by parent and C1 remained at the facility. S2 stated both C1 and C2 are now kept separately, and are no longer in the same room at the same time. S2 stated the reported incident has not occurred again after that day.
