25 | On the date and time listed, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Perla Ordones and Samuel Lopez conducted a Case Management-Legal/Non-Compliance inspection. This inspection is in agreement with, and as a result of a Non-Compliance Conference, that took place on 03/06/2024, due to concerns associated with the facility history and citations issued. The citations issued were regarding Infant Safe Sleep, Personal Rights, Operation of a Family Child Care Home, Health and Safety Code, and Admission Procedures and Authorized Representatives Rights.
LPAs met with the Licensee Sonia Carias, toured the facility and conducted a census. The following was observed:
· Observed personal rights being accorded to the children in care.
· Observed baby gate preventing access to the second floor.
· Staff files were not reviewed during this visit as there were no staff present during this visit. The only adult in the home from 12:30PM to 12:50PM was Licensee Sonia Carias.
· Children’s files observed to NOT be in compliance. During record review, LPAs observed that C1 and C2 were missing proof of the Consent for Emergency Medical Treatment (LIC627) and Affidavit Regarding Liability Insurance (LIC282). These are repeat violations which were last cited on 01/24/2024. Additionally, LPAs observed that the Acknowledgement of Receipt of Licensing Reports (LIC9224) for the inspection dated 01/24/2024 and the Non-Compliance Conference dated 03/06/2024 were missing from all children's files.
· Roster observed was NOT in compliance. During record review, LPAs observed that C1 and C2 were missing from the roster but were present during the visit. This is a repeat violation which was last cited on 01/24/2024.
· During facility tour, LPAs observed seven children present during this visit, none of which were six years old or enrolled in school. |
