32 | It was reported, on or about December 2023, that the day-care appears dirty and smells. LPA conducted a tour of the facility and could not identify any potential risks or hazards to day-care children in regard to cleanliness of the physical plant. LPA also conducted interviews with pertinent parties that revealed that the facility had recently hired a new janitorial staff that is to clean the facility, including mopping and vacuuming, during closing hours and as permitted throughout the day. Additionally, it was stated that staff members attempt to clean throughout the day if given the opportunity and which does not interfere with providing care to day-care children.
Based on information obtained during this investigation through interviews conducted, the review of pertinent documentation, and after receiving conflicting information, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED. A finding that the allegation is unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove that the allegation occurred.
A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days.
Failure to comply with posting requirements shall result in an immediate civil penalty of $100.
Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with the Director Charlene Bunnell-McAlister.
