On 10/15/2021 at 11:10AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) S. Mendoza-Ceja met with the Magdelina Morales and explained the purpose of the inspection which is to conclude the investigation of the above allegations. Prior to entering the facility a risk assessment was conducted. Investigation included obtaining complainant's statement, interviewing the site supervisor and other staff, six out seven parents of children in the toddler program were interviewed; and reviewed child #1's file, and diaper changing logs.

The Site Supervisor stated she was not aware of any diaper changing issue until it was brought to her attention during a parent orientation to their program. The Site Supervisor provided LPA diaper changing logs that are maintained in a binder in the classroom. Staff interviewed revealed they were working with some of the children who had toileting/diaper issues, but also documented their concerns and discussion with parents. The site supervisor and staff interviewed did not corroborate complainant's allegations.

Parent Interviews did not corroborate any diapering or toileting concerns. Parents interviewed indicated their children's needs were met and there were no concerns with toileting or diapering.

LPA reviewed the diaper changing logs which includes the date, time, and description of the diaper (Wet, Dry, BM-Soilded, or DA-Diarrhea). LPA also reviewed child #1's file, Diaper Changing Log, including Case Notes for child #1.

The above allegations are unsubstantiated, based on LPA's interviews with staff, parents of children in care, and record review. Although these allegations may have occurred, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove that the alleged violations did or did not occur, therefore, the allegations listed above are deemed UNSUBSTANTIATED.

Exit interview was conducted with Site Supervisor, during which appeal rights were explained.

This report along with a copy of the appeal rights and Notice of Site Visit (LIC9213) were provided.
