25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Crystal Colvin arrived at the facility unannounced for the purpose of conducting an inspection. LPA Colvin met with Executive Director Karen Roper and explained the purpose of the inspection. While at the facility, LPA Colvin observed that three staff members present (S1, S2, & S3) were not associated to the facility. LPA Colvin confirmed through file review that all three staff have criminal background clearance, but this has not been transferred to the facility in order to associate them. LPA Colvin contacted the Riverside Regional Office to verify if any associations Deficiency cited. When there is a violation of criminal background clearance (such as staff not being associated), a civil penalty is assessed in the amount of $100 per day, per staff member, with a limit of $500 per staff member being assessed, unless the facility has repeated this violation in the last 12 months.
S1 has worked at the facility since January 2024, so LPA Colvin will be assessing $500 in civil penalties for S1 ($100 a day x 5). S2 has worked at the facility since December 2023, so LPA Colvin will be assessing $500 in civil penalties for S1 ($100 a day x 5). S3 has worked at the facility since 3/16/24, so LPA Colvin will be assessing $500 in civil penalties for S1 ($100 a day x 5). Total amount of civil penalties assessed today is $1,500.
An exit interview was conducted with Executive Director Karen Roper and a copy of this report, LIC809D, LIC421BG, LIC9098 Proof of Corrections, and appeal rights was provided. |
