13 | On March 12, 2025, at 12:30PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Dayna Chambers conducted an unannounced Complaint Inspection for the purpose of delivering finding for the above allegation. LPA announced purpose of inspection and was allowed entry to facility by Ariana Griffin, Licensee. LPA toured of the facility and observed 4 children present with 1 staff and licensee, upon arrival.
This complaint was investigated by Community Care Licensing Investigation Branch (IB) Investigator Miles. IB investigation consisted of interviews conducted with licensee, daycare staff, and daycare parents. Documentation was received from Long Beach Police Department (LBPD), Department of Child and Family Services (DCFS), and medical records from HOAG Hospital were reviewed.
According to HOAG Hospital medical records, it could not rule out accidental as the reason for the injuries. Long Beach Police Department investigation revealed no intent to harm the child, and no outright neglect of the child, as well an inability to know the exact date, time, or location where any of the injuries happened. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated.
No deficiencies will be cited today 03/23/2025. A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days. Failure to comply with posting requirements shall result in an immediate civil penalty of $100.
Exit interview was conducted with Ariana Griffin, Licensee. Appeal Rights were provided. |
