LPA met with Licensee Darylmika Brown. Also present was Licensee's Assistant (Staff #2). A toured of the facility was conducted and census was taken.

During the course of the investigation, LPA interviewed Licensee and other parties involved. LPA conducted observations, reviewed records, and obtained copies of records.
