On 12/16/21 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Mahnaz (Nancy) Malek conducted a case management of the facility for an incident which was self reported by the facility representative to our office on 12/14/21. The Covid-19 Emergency Response questionnaire was answered by Justin Pukasamsombut who was supervising 4 school age children in room # 1. The 5th school age child arrived during the inspection.
A review of staff records on this date indicated that all facility staff or other individuals who required caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse index clearances or exemptions.
According to the facility self report, it states it was observed by a witness that 4 children were left unattended in room # 1 while staff #1 was in the other room on 12/13/21.
Today LPA discussed the incident with the program Director (Mariana Bosch) over the phone, interviewed one staff, and 5 present children. Staff # 1 mentioned in the incident was not present.
Based on the information obtained through the witness of the incident, 3 staff, and 4 children out of 5 present children today, there are enough evidence that staff # 1 was left 4 children unattended in room # 1 while being in room # 2. However the length of the time of absence of supervision is unknown. According to interviews the duration of absence might have happened couple of minutes. Room # 1 and Room # 2 are connected. There is an slight open entrance between them. Therefore there was no visual observation of children from room to room except for the slight entrance. It was confirmed by interviews that staff # 1 was not able to see the children when the incident happened.
Based on the information obtained, it was found out the absence of supervision has occurred for 4 school age children on 12/13/21 while staff # 1 was in room # 2.
