Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Veronica Martinez Garza conducted an unannounced Case Management Incident inspection at the above facility on 04/21/26 at 09:00 a.m. The purpose of this inspection is to follow up on an incident reported to the Department within 24 hours. At 09:11 a.m., LPA met with the facility representative Monica Bonilla who guided LPA on a tour of the facility and census was taken.

On 03/27/26 at approximately 11:12 a.m., Child 1 (C1) arrived at their classroom while their parent was holding the child’s hand and speaking to the Staff 1 (S1). C1 began to move around, jumping, and let go of his parent’s hand. C1 threw himself backwards hitting the back of his head on the metal part of the of the classroom emergency supply wagon which is near the entrance of the classroom. Parent immediately picked up C1 and S1 noticed blood on the parent’s hand. S1 alerted the parent of C1 that they had blood on their hand and began applying pressure/first aid on C1 head. The parent informed S1 that the child would be taken to the doctor. Staff notified the program’s health staff, supervisor, and completed an ouch and head report. A copy of the ouch and head report was given to C1 parent. According to the parent, C1 was treated and released on the same day. On 03/30, C1 returned to the facility; however, the facility was not able to accept the child since the facility needed a doctor’s clearance. The program nurse followed up with mom and provided a form that the doctor must complete prior to the child’s return to the facility. Per the parent, C1 needed one stitch of the back of his head, and a copy of the child’s emergency visit was provided to the facility.

LPA conducted an interview with S1 who stated that they were present during the arrival of C1 and were speaking to the child’s parent in the entrance near the emergency wagon. S1 observed that C1 was having a hard time washing their hands so the child’s parent grabbed his hand.

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.

The parent let go of his hand and C1 pulled backwards resulting in hitting their head on the metal part of the emergency wagon. Per S1, the child’s parent immediately picked up C1, and staff observed blood on the parent’s hand. S1 alerted the parent that there was blood, grabbed gloves and applied pressure while the parent washed their hands. S1 held C1 while applying pressure and observed that the child wanted to go to sleep. S1 asked the parent of C1 if they wanted the staff to call 911; however, the parent declined and stated they would take the child to the Emergency Room (ER). According to S1, C1 was taken to the ER were he received 1 stitch and returned to the facility on 03/30; however, the child was returned home because they didn’t have a doctor’s clearance. Per S1, C1 returned on 03/31 with a doctor’s note and no restrictions.

LPA attempted to interview C1 while they sat on a chair in their classroom and S1 nearby; however, the child turned away and didn’t want to speak with LPA.

LPA toured the classroom where the incident occurred and observed a blue emergency wagon near the entrance. There is blue foam placed in the metal area near the wagon’s tire and additional foam was added to the wagon to prevent any injuries.

During this inspection, LPA interviewed Staff 1 (S1 and attempted to interview Child 1 (C1). LPA reviewed and obtained a copy of C1 doctor's note.

At this time, the licensee is in compliance with California Title 22 Regulations. Therefore, there are no citations being issued today.
