25 | On June 27, 2023, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Van and Leong made an unannounced Case Management inspection and met with Regional Manager Daisy Hsieh and Center Manager Cindy Hwang. The purpose of the inspection was to follow up on an unusual incident at the Center that the Department received on June 20, 2023. The Facility self-reported an incident where C1 left the school and was found outside by a community ambassador.
According to the Regional Manager, the incident occurred during nap time when the children woke up. Per Regional Manager, C1 opened the door in the hallway, exited through the two front doors, and left the facility. C1 was found by a community ambassador and brought back to the Center. After the incident, the Center had all staff training on supervision and had a conference with the child’s family. In addition, staff members involved in the incident were dismissed from the Center.
Based on the interview and the incident report received on June 20, 2023, regarding the above incident, it was found that supervision was absent when the child left the site alone and walked outside the school without the teacher's knowledge. A $500 civil penalty was assessed today for the absence of supervision. |
