On August 26, 2026, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Paul Garcia conducted an unannounced Case Management Incident inspection at the facility. Upon arrival, LPA met with Director, Deni Webb. LPA Garcia toured the facility’s licensed areas and took a census of the children in care.

The purpose of this inspection was to follow up on an unusual incident reported to the Fresno Community Care Licensing Division (CCLD) on August 13, 2026. The report involved Child 1 (C1), who was found unsupervised inside the bathroom of classroom #2.

After a visual inspection, LPA Garcia conducted interviews with witnesses and Director Webb herself to gather additional information regarding the circumstances that led to the incident, supervision protocols, and any corrective actions taken. Observations by LPA Garcia took place to assess compliance with Title 22 regulations and to provide guidance pertaining to the continued safety and supervision of children in care.

Incident Summary

On Wednesday, August 12, 2026 , at approximately 3:22 p.m., a child from another classroom was sent to Classroom 2 to use the indoor restroom following successful communication between the two teachers via handheld radio. Staff 1 (S1) in Classroom 2 originally had seven children under her supervision. With the addition of the child needing to use the restroom, the census temporarily increased to eight children.

The child entered Classroom 2, went into the small restroom, and closed the door. Meanwhile, the remaining children lined up near the exit in preparation for transitioning to outdoor play.

FACILITY EVALUATION REPORT California law requires a public report of each licensing visit/inspection. This report is a record for the facility and the licensing agency. This report is available for public review; therefore, care is taken not to disclose personal or confidential information. Inquiries concerning the location, maintenance, and contents of these reports may be directed to the Licensing Program Analyst or Regional Office whose address and telephone number are listed on the front of this form.

DEFICIENCIES A deficiency is an instance of noncompliance with licensing requirements, including applicable statutes, regulations, interim licensing standards, operating standards, and written directives. Applicants/ licensees must be notified in writing of all licensing deficiencies. Deficiencies are listed on the left side of this form, and the applicable licensing requirement upon which the deficiency is identified. There are two types of deficiencies:
  • Type A deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, if not corrected, have a direct and immediate risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care.
  • Type B deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, without correction, could become a risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care, a recordkeeping violation that could impact the care of said persons and/or protection of their resources, or a violation that could impact those services required to meet the needs of persons in care.

PLANS OF CORRECTION (POCs) The licensing agency is required to establish a reasonable length of time to correct a deficiency. In order to set the time, the licensing agency must take into consideration the seriousness of the violation, the number of persons in care involved, and the availability of equipment and personnel necessary to correct the violation. Applicants/licensees are requested to provide a specific plan for each violation on the right side of the form across from each deficiency. The more specific the plan, the less chance exists for any misunderstanding in setting time limits and reviewing corrections. The applicant/licensee who encounters problems beyond their control in completing the corrections within the specified time frame may request and may be granted an extension of the correction due date by the licensing agency.

CORRECTION NOTIFICATION The applicant/licensee is responsible for completing all corrections and promptly notifying the licensing agency of corrections. Applicants/licensees are advised to keep a dated copy of any correspondence sent to the licensing agency concerning corrections, or if corrections are telephoned to the licensing agency, the date, person contacted, and information given.

CIVIL PENALTIES The licensing agency is required by law to issue a Penalty Notice, when applicable, to all facilities holding a license issued by the licensing agency, or subject to licensure, except Certified Family Homes, Resource Families, and Foster Family Homes, or any governmental entity.

PENALTY NOTICE GIVEN The statement concerning civil penalties serves as a penalty notice on this Licensing Report and failure to correct cited licensing deficiencies will result in civil penalties. Applicants/ licensees are required to pay civil penalties when administrative appeals have been exhausted and in accordance with any payment arrangements made with the licensing agency.

APPEAL RIGHTS The applicant/licensee has a right without prejudice to discuss any disagreement in this report with the licensing agency concerning the proper application of licensing requirements. The applicant/ licensee may request a formal review by the licensing agency to amend or dismiss the notice of deficiency and/ or civil penalty. Requests for review shall be made in writing within 15 business days of receipt of a deficiency notification or civil penalty assessment. Licensing deficiencies may be appealed pursuant to the procedures in the LIC 9058 Applicant/Licensee Rights.

AGENCY REVIEW The licensing agency review of an appeal may be conducted based upon information provided in writing by the applicant/licensee. The applicant/licensee may request an office meeting to provide additional information. The applicant/licensee will be notified in writing of the results of the agency review within 60 business days of the date when all necessary information has been provided to the licensing agency.

EMAIL REQUIREMENT Adult Community Care Facilities, Residential Care Facilities for the Chronically Ill, and Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly are required to provide and maintain an active email address of record with the licensing agency.

During this transition, two siblings in line began engaging in roughhousing behavior. S1 became distracted while redirecting the siblings. After successfully addressing the behavior, S1 escorted the entire group outside, inadvertently leaving the visiting child alone in the restroom behind a closed door.

The unattended child was later discovered by a nearby parent, who immediately informed Staff 2 (S2). Director Webb was contacted via handheld radio and promptly responded, locating the child alone in the restroom without direct supervision. The child appeared emotional after being alone for several minutes. She was comforted and safely escorted back to her original classroom.

Interviews

Interviews revealed several contributing factors that led to the lapse in supervision in Classroom 2.

There was a deviation from standard procedure, which requires that an available staff member physically escort children to the main restroom. Additionally, closing the full restroom door with a child inside created conditions that contributed to the loss of direct supervision.S1, who originally had a census of seven children, received an additional child from another classroom. During this time, S1 became distracted while intervening with two siblings whose behavior required redirection.S1’s failure to maintain an accurate and complete census of all children directly contributed to the lapse in supervision. She counted children before exiting the classroom for outdoor play but did not account for the visiting child still inside the restroom, resulting in a significant breach of safety protocol.

This incident resulted in a serious supervision concern and constitutes a significant violation of regulatory standards.

Corrective Action

As a result of the lapse in supervision, Director Webb instructed maintenance staff to replace the full bathroom door in Classroom 2 with a half door to allow for continuous visual monitoring. She also counseled staff on proper supervision protocols.

Staff were further directed to implement an enhanced transition procedure, requiring physical headcounts to be conducted twice, both before and after each transition between indoor and outdoor activities.

Based on the information obtained through documents, interviews, and a comprehensive review of the incident, it was determined that facility staff failed to ensure that Child 1 (C1) was under the direct supervision of a teacher at all times.

The incomplete physical count and lack of supervision resulted in C1 being left alone in the classroom bathroom, constituting a serious breach of safety.

Per Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 1, of the California Code of Regulations, the following deficiencies are cited: (see next page, 809 D)

LPA Paul Garcia informed Director, Deni Webb, that this report dated August 26, 2026, documents one Type A citation which shall be posted for 30 consecutive days as there are immediate risks to the health, safety, or personal rights of children in care.

A signed Acknowledgement of Receipt of Licensing Report (LIC 9224), or other written statement, must be placed in the child's file for verification.

An exit interview was conducted, and this report was reviewed with Director, Deni Webb.
Notice of site visit was issued and must remain posted for 30 days.
