13 | On 5/1/2024 @ 10AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Nancy Diaz conducted an unannounced inspection to deliver the findings to the above allegation. Initial inspection was conducted on 4/18/2024. A tour of the facility was conducted with Ms. Wilkinson. Observed present today were 17 infants and toddlers with staff Ivy Tu, Arlene Diramos, Baharak Rezaei, Jatinder Kaur & Cassandra Castelo. Appropriate staff-child ratio were observed in both classrooms. It is being noted that all children returned to daycare and were cleared of HFMD.
Based on interview, observation and review of relevant documentation, it was determined that there was no evidence corrorborating the allegation that staff did not take adequare measures to prevent outbreaks in the facility. It was revealed that child with Hand Food and Mouth Disease (HFMD) was misdiagnosed with yeast infection. Child was taken back to the doctor because his condition did not improve 3-5 days later. Children were exposed to the disease longer due to the misdiagnosis of the child with HFMD. Therefore, the allegation is considered Unsubstantiated. A finding that a complaint is unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred.
No deficiency was cited. LPA reviewed the report with Ms. Wilkinson and provided a copy. Notice of Site Visit was given, posted and will remain posted for 30 days. |
