On 07/09/2026 at 2:15 PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Annette Sutherland conducted an investigation into the allegations that the facility was not providing a safe environment for children and that staff were not appropriately supervising children. LPA met with facility representative Holly Hobson.
The Department interviewed facility staff, parents and reviewed relevant documentation during the investigation.
It was alleged that an incident involving children occurred while in care, resulting in concerns regarding the safety of the environment and the adequacy of staff supervision. Interviews conducted during the investigation did not produce information that corroborated the allegations, and no independent witnesses or other evidence were identified to confirm the reported events. Staff interviewed consistently denied knowledge of the alleged incident and reported that supervision was provided in accordance with facility procedures.

Although the facility reviewed its supervision practices following the reported concerns, the Department’s investigation did not reveal sufficient evidence to establish that the facility failed to provide a safe environment for children or that staff failed to provide appropriate supervision in violation of Title 22 regulations.
Therefore, both allegations are determined to be Unsubstantiated. A finding of Unsubstantiated means that although the allegations may have happened or may be valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove that the alleged violations occurred.

An exit interview was conducted with the Facility representative Holly Hobson. A Notice of Site Visit (LIC 9213) and Appeal Rights (LIC 9058) were provided to the facility representative along with the Complaint Investigation Report (LIC 9099). LPA Sutherland observed the Notice of Site Visit being posted. The Notice of Site Visit shall remain posted for 30 days.
