On 02/21/2024, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Ka Vang and Licensing Program Manager (LPM) Cynthia Brannon arrived at the facility to conduct an unannounced follow-up inspection to deliver the findings of the complaint investigation that was initiated on 12/12/2023. LPA met with Site Supervisor Andrea Ceja Martinez. An inspection tour of the facility was conducted, and census was taken. LPA explained and discussed the allegations and the amended findings with Licensee and Site Supervisor.

During the course of the investigation, LPA conducted class observation, record reviewed, and interviews. During the interviews, it was disclosed that a staff member observed an incident involving a child conducted inappropriate behaviors; however, the staff member failed to report the incident to the site supervisor and or the child’s parent(s)/authorized representative.

Based on the interviews and information attained during the investigation, there is preponderance evidence indicated that the staff did not report the incident to the children’s authorized representative. Based on the above information, the allegation is SUBSTANTIATED.
