On 2/28/25 @ 10:30am an unannounced case management inspection was conducted by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Erica Laird. LPA met with owner/director Maria Trenda in response to an Unusual Incident Report received by the Department on 2/13/25. Per the incident report, staff (S1) handled a child (C1) roughly.

During today's inspection, LPA Laird conducted an interview with owner/director Maria Trenda. Maria stated on 2/12/25 a staff (S1) was observed handling a child (C1) roughly on the facility cameras. Maria stated she was not present when the incident occurred but was immediately notified of the incident. Maria stated upon viewing video footage, it was determined staff had handled C1 roughly. Maria stated S1 no longer works at the facility. Maria stated the actions of S1 do not reflect the training and policies of the facility.

LPA Laird conducted two staff interviews (S2-S3). LPA Laird obtained observation reports and requested video footage. At the time of inspection the video footage was not available for review.

Based on interviews, the following deficiency is being cited on the LIC809-D: 101223(a)(3) Personal Rights.

LPA Laird informed owner/director Maria Treda that this report dated 2/28/25 documents 1 Type A citation(s) which shall be posted for 30 consecutive days as there is an immediate risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of children in care.
