25 | Due to COVID-19, a tele-inspection was conducted. On 3/26/2021, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kim Leung met facility director Julie Zone via FaceTime conducting a case management inspection in response to the receipt of an unusual incident report (UIR) from the facility. The UIR was received by the licensing agency on 3/22/2021.
Director guided LPA on a virtual tour of the facility. Census was taken, criminal record clearances were verified and program activities were observed. Child Care Industry Guidance on cohort size and social distancing was reviewed with the director during this inspection and director agreed to follow the guidance to protect the health and safety of children and staff during the COVID-19 pandemic. Interview with staff was conducted. Facility records were requested and director agreed to submit the records to the Department by 3/29/2020. Further information is needed. LPA would continue gathering information of the alleged incident. Upon completion of the review, the outcome and/or recommendations will be provided to the licensee.
During this inspection, LPA observed Staff #1 supervising children in an activity room. The staff has obtained the required criminal record clearances. However, there is no verification to support that the staff's criminal record clearances are associated or have ever been associated to this facility. Director stated that the staff member has been working at this facility since 2019. See LIC809D for deficiency cited per California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 12 for failure to associate the staff member's criminal record clearances to the license.

Ms. Zone agreed to acknowledge receipt of the email. An electronic “read receipt” was also attached. The electronic read receipt of the emailed report acknowledges receipt of this report. |
