25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Zaid Hakim conducted an Unannounced Annual Random at the facility today. Upon arrival, LPA observed forty five (45) school age children and at least six (6) staff engaging in daily activities and met Mr. Gabe Gonzalez, Site Director. The program operates on an active elementary school campus and is licensed to serve 100 school age children ages 4.9 to 12 years old. The program operates in one portable classroom and one classroom attached to the main building. Days and hours of operation are Monday through Friday 7:00am to 6:00pm. LPA observed the required posted materials, including the Facility License, Emergency Disaster Plan (LIC 610), Earthquake Preparedness Checklist (LIC 9148), Parents' Rights Poster (PUB 393), Personal Rights (LIC 613A), Child Car Seat Law (PUB 269), Food Menus, and Activity Schedules.
LPA reviewed a random sample of children's and staff files during today's visit. Each child's file reviewed contains the Emergency Identification Information form (LIC 700) and the Notification of Parent's Rights. All staff files reviewed contain the required transcripts/verification of experience, required immunization records, and required training(s). At least one staff on site at the time of the inspection maintains valid CPR/ First Aid certification with an expiration month of 10/2020. The Director understands that there shall be at least one person, with valid CPR and First Aid certifications, on site at all times or present during off-site activities (field trips).
The Director understands the conditions, limitations, and capacity specifications of the facility license. The Director understands that children shall be visually supervised and accounted for at all times. LPA advised that due to the amount of outdoor space available to the children, staff supervision plans should be organized, documented, and be followed. The Director is aware of the required sign in and sign out procedures for school age children who arrive at the facility on their own. The Director stated that all school age children are picked up and signed by their respective parent(s)/guardian(s) whom are listed and verified as responsible parties. LPA observed at the time of the inspection that a sign in/ sign out sheet is used and is updated throughout the day, with full legal signatures. The Director stated that children are observed for illnesses and general well-being upon arrival. Kindergarten through Second Grade children children arrive to the program by staff escort whereas older age groups walk to the program after dismissal independently. LPA observed that program classrooms are in close proximity to the classrooms on campus. LPA observed that all children were directly supervised at the time of the inspection. LPA and the Director discussed staff supervision around parking lots, walkways, and gated areas.
A review of staff records indicates that all facility staff or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse index clearances or exemptions. LPA reminded Director of the applicable civil penalties for those adults who have not received fingerprint clearances, are not associated to the license and who come in contact with or provide care and supervision to the children. Penalty amounts: $100.00 per person per day, minimum of $100.00 to a maximum of $500.00 per person for an initial violation and a minimum of $100.00 to a maximum of $3000.00 per person for any subsequent violations within a 12 month period.
