On 04/29/25, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Denisia Jimenez conducted an unannounced complaint inspection at the facility to deliver the finding for the above-mentioned allegation. LPA met with Owner, Laurae Raths and a census was taken.
During the investigation, LPA interviewed reporting party, staff, parents, and obtained records. Based on the information obtained child #1 would come home with feces in their underwear causing child to get an infection. Child #1 would request teachers to wipe them after having a bowel movement and child #1 would state to parent that the teachers weren’t assisting them. Parent #1 notified its concerns to the Director a couple of times. Interviews revealed that staff would assist the children with wiping if they would ask for help. Staff also remind the children if they have wiped or need assistance after having a bowel movement. A staff also stated that they can’t force a child to get wiped if they don’t ask for help or don’t want to be wiped. Interviews obtained by parents also stated that staff would help assist their children in wiping but would also come home with stains in their underwear. A parent stated that they are not sure if their child would ask for assistance in wiping and staff would allow the children to wipe themselves. (Continued on 9099-C)
