On 09/09/24, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Ernand Dabuet conducted an unannounced Case Management visit at this facility. LPA was not greeted at the door by anyone. LPA contacted Program Director Stephanie Smith and explained the inspection visit is associated with an incident on 02/15/24 and a case management visit on 02/22/24.

On 02/22/24, an interview with Stephanie Smith Program Director reported an incident concerning client #1 (C1) and staff #1 (S1) involving physical assault. The Department interviewed staff #2 (S2) who claimed to have been a witness to the incident involving (C1) & (S1) and confirmed that a physical assault had occurred. Due to an ongoing investigation, staff #1 (S1) was not available for an interview.

LPA Dabuet inquired about what had transpired from the internal investigation and Harbor Regional Center's investigation. The facility and Harbor Regional Center substantiated the investigation, according to Smith. Ambitions have terminated the employee's employment.

An exit interview was conducted with Stephanie Smith by telephone and a copy of the report was provided.
