LPA Debbie Correia investigated the above allegation on August 8,2025. During the initial visit LPA Correia secured pertinent records, conducted a facility tour, and interviewed staff.

It was alleged the facility was over capacity. A review of facility records revealed the facility is licensed to serve a maximum of 30 adult clients between the age of 18 and 59. A review of facility records and staff interviews revealed the facility was over capacity by three (3) clients. Based on a facility record review and staff interviews the above mentioned allegation was determined to be Substantiated. A substantiated finding means the preponderance of evidence was met.
