The purpose of this inspection is to complete a complaint investigation of the facility. On 10/02/19 a complaint was filed with the licensing office alleging staff restrained a day care child.
During today's complaint inspection Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Connolly met with assistant director Jilliam Foret who guided the LPA on a tour of the facility. Director Lori Silva was not present. There were 42 school age children, grades one, two and three, in room Y-1 with four staff including the assistant director. A review of staff records on this date indicates that all facility staff or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse index clearances.

On 10/14/19 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Connolly made an initial complaint inspection. During the initial inspection LPA Connolly interviewed the director and three additional staff. At that time the director provided copies of Parent Communication Forms for the months August and September 2019.

During today's inspection four children interviews were conducted. None of the children interviewed disclosed any evidence or information regarding observing any incident where staff restrained a child in care.
It has been determined that the subject child no longer attends YMCA-Oakgrove and there has been no response in the attempt to reach the subject child. The LPA is continuing to obtain a police report after several attempts to secure.

During the initial complaint inspection LPA Connolly interviewed 4 staff. None of the 4 staff interviewed disclosed witnessing any staff restraining a child in care . One family member, during an interview, stated confidence in the in the care and supervision provided by staff. Review of the documentation provided during the initial complaint inspection shows staff followed YMCA protocol.

Program Director Pam Kowalski came to Y-1 to be available for the exit interview. During the exit interview when the licensing report was reviewed and discussed the program director was informed that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated.

No deficiencies were observed of the California Code of Regulation, Title 22, and Division 12 at the time of the visit.

Appeal Rights were discussed. The facility representative was provided a copy of their appeal rights (LIC 9058 12/15) and their signature on this form acknowledges receipt of these rights. All appeals must be in writing and received by the licensing office within 15 business days.

The facility representative was informed that the “Notice of Site Visit” must be posted for 30 consecutive days. Failure to post will result in Civil Penalties of $100.00. The “Notice of Site Visit” must be posted on or adjacent to the door.
