LPA discussed the new Mandated Reporter Training with licensee. Beginning January 1, 2018, Health and Safety Code 1596.8662 requires all licensed providers, applicants, directors and employees to complete training as specified on their mandated reporter duties and to renew their training every two years. Volunteers are encouraged but not required to take the training. In addition, existing licensees and staff must meet requirements by March 30, 2018. This training requirement may be met by using the Department’s Office of Child Abuse Prevention (OCAP) online training modules. The OCAP modules are free of cost and available at: http://www.mandatedreporterca.com/. The training is currently provided in English.

LPA checked facilities fees and confirmed that it is up to date.

LPA provided the Community Care Licensing’s website www.ccld.ca.gov, so the licensee can obtain updated licensing information, new regulations and access forms. LPA advised licensee of their responsibility to stay current in regards to new regulations. LPA also included the email address for the children's advocacy program to stay current on new laws childcareadvocatesprogram@dss.ca.gov.

In the areas that were evaluated, deficiencies were observed at the time of the visit and cited on LIC 809D. An exit interview was conducted and report was reviewed with licensee who stated he understands today's inspection. Notice of Site Visit posted and licensee understands it must remain posted for 30 days.

LPA and LPM arrived at 8:00 AM and inspected the facility until 12:50 PM, when they left for lunch. They returned to the facility at 1:50 PM to complete the review of records and write reports.
