During the visit, the Licensee confirmed they have 14 children enrolled. At approximately, 10:13 am, Licensee’s Assistant arrived.

The fire clearance for a large family child care was approved on 12/21/2020 by Riverside County Fire Department.

During the inspection, LPA verified a working cell phone is available, and the current phone number and email on file are correct. A fully charged fire extinguisher (2A:10BC) was observed mounted on the wall in the entry hallway, along with a functioning smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector, both of which were tested by the Licensee. There is no fireplace in the home. All hazardous items are not stored securely and are inaccessible to children; LPA Hernandez observed exposed wiring in the living room play area. Additionally, Licensee placed a shed in the backyard to store items such as tools, however the shed did not have lock or latch to make it inaccessible to children in care. Type B deficiency issued .

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.

There is an in ground pool and spa in the off-limit area of the backyard. The swimming pool is enclosed by a 5ft high wrought iron fence. The rear side of the pool is enclosed by a concrete block wall that borders the neighboring property backyard. The spacing between the vertical bars of the wrought iron fence does not exceed 4 inches, and the clearance between the bottom of the fence and the ground is less than 2 inches. The gate swings away from the pool and is self-closing and self-latching. Licensee has placed a storage shed adjacent to the pool fence. LPA observed pool equipment pad and 2 water storage tanks are located on the opposite side of the shed. These items serve as a handhold/footholds, allowing a child climb onto the shed and potentially gain access to the pool enclosure. Type B deficiency issued. LPA confirmed the presence of required safety equipment: a life ring with a minimum exterior diameter of 17 inches, labeled as U.S. Coast Guard approved, and a fixed 12-foot rescue pole with a body hook. Both were visible and readily accessible from the pool area. The pool alarm was observed in the pool and is compliant with ASTM International Standard F2208. LPA advised licensee to be vigilant of any wear and tear on the fencing, gate, spring and latch. As of the date of this inspection, the fencing meets Title 22 Regulations. Licensee understands that all bodies of water including ponds, above ground pools, spas, and some fountains must be properly covered or fenced per Title 22 Regulations. The Department must be notified before and after installation of the above types of bodies of water. In addition, all wading pools or similar products must be emptied immediately after use and stored in an upright position.

Licensee Karla Hernandez was reminded that all adults 18 and over, living or working in the home, including employees and volunteers, except as specified in Health and Safety Code section 1596.871, must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption, or transfer their existing clearance or exemption, prior to initial presence in a licensed Family Child Care Home.
