LPA met with Site Supervisor, Patty Salazar. LPA discussed the purpose of the visit and was led on a tour of the facility. There were forty (40) children, and eleven (11) staff present at the time of this inspection.
On 8/11/2023, the San Diego Regional Office received an Unusual Incident Report which stated child (C1) was participating in a session with an AB therapist (S1), who is from an outside agency, and conducts sessions with C1. During the session in C1’s classroom, C1 got upset during snack time. It was observed that S1 pulled C1’s arm while instructing C1 to pick up the snack on the floor. C1 was crying and staff (S2) intervened and comforted C1. Site Supervisor was informed and requested S1 complete the session and leave the facility. Site Supervisor requested a different therapist be assigned to C1.
During the course of the visit, LPA conducted interviews with Site Supervisor and C1 and reviewed video footage of the incident.
Based on witness interviews conducted, unusual incident report submitted, and classroom video footage reviewed, it was determined that on 8/11/23, S2 and Site Supervisor acted in a manner consistent with regulations and intervened to protect the personal rights of C1.
