reviewed, it is determined that based on the facilities’ licensed square footage, they are operating within their licensed ratio and capacity.

This agency has investigated the complaint alleging day care children’s diapering needs are not being met while in care and facility is operating out of ratio. The Department has found that although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations occurred, therefore the above allegations are found to be UNSUBSTANTIATED. Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with Director, Mendez. A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days.
