25 | On 10/20/2020 at 1:52pm: LPA Pete Hernandez contacted Director Lorena Lopez on her cell phone and initiated a FaceTime tele-inspection. Licensing Program Analysts (LPA), Pete Hernandez, made a case management inspection - incident in response to an unusual incident that was self-reported to Licensing by Director, Lorena Lopez, on October 15, 2020. During today's inspection, LPA toured the facility and interviewed staff, and parent of child in report. LPA learned that on October 15, 2020, an infant had wandered out of the entrance gate and into the parking lot. The staff members who were caring for the child were leaving the infant playground when the incident occurred and did not witness the child leaving the group. Due to Covid-19 the gates had been left open to reduce chance of pathogen transfer. The staff took a head count prior to leaving the infant playground and did not notice that the child was missing until they took a second headcount when they returned to the classroom. One of the teachers immediately left the classroom to find the child in the parking lot. Immediately following this incident, the Director wrote up plan of corrections that require all gates to be closed at all times.
