25 | On February 12th, 2025, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Julio Rodriguez conducted an unannounced case management inspection. LPA met with Teacher Graciela Mendoza. The purpose of today's inspection was to gather more information regarding an unusual incident reported to Community Care Licensing on January 30th, 2025.
During today’s inspection, LPA Rodriguez interviewed a teacher and staff member. Interviews were conducted to gather more details regarding the unusual incident report submitted involving two children drinking contaminated water. Interviews conducted confirmed that an igloo water container utilized by children was sprayed with diluted bleach solution and left overnight to ensure proper cleaning. The next day, staff filled the Igloo container with water without properly rinsing the container and two children drank water from the container resulting in possible exposure to the diluted bleach solution. Interviews conducted indicate that staff took immediate appropriate measures in addressing the incident and proper notifications were made to all involved parties. Interviews conducted indicate that staff have made changes in protocol and are taking proper measures to prevent the incident from occurring again. Although the incident occurred, it was determined to be an isolated incident and staff took appropriate measures to address the incident following appropriate policies, regulations, and reporting requirements. Children are okay and attending the center.
During the tour of the center, it was noted that the Site Supervisor listed in the system, Nora Guillen is no longer with the facility. LPA reminded staff that a Site supervisor packet needs to be submitted within 30 days to ensure proper coverage and compliance with title 22. Staff indicated that the new Site Supervisor is going to be the school principal Frank Espinosa.
Per Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 1 of the California Code of Regulations, no deficiency is being cited during today’s inspection.
