**This is an amended report**
On 02/05/2026, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Lisa Clayton, conducted an unannounced visit for the purpose of delivering findings for an investigation that was conducted by the Investigations Bureau (IB), by Investigator Veronica Padilla. On 07/31/2025, IB conducted the 10-day visit to the facility reviewing and obtaining documentation pertaining to the allegation as well as text messages between the licensee and the parent.
Based on information obtained and interviews conducted, the allegation of PERSONAL RIGHTS; Adult in the home sexually abusing a child is deemed unsubstantiated. Meaning although the alleged violation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred.
No deficiency cited, copy of report was reviewed and provided. LPA Clayton spoke to licensee Caterina, and she gave approval for her assistant Linda Foster to sign and receive the amended report. LPA Clayton posted Notice of Site visit, which is to remain posted for 30 days.
