Upon arrival, LPA met with staff, Sawda Rashid and explained the purpose of the visit. LPA toured the facility, indoors and outdoors, to assess compliance with Title 22. At 11:40AM, LPA Renita Rodriguez arrived at the facility to support in the documentation and review of facility operation. During today’s inspection there was seven children in care with one staff present. Licensee arrived at the facility at 2:20PM. Indoor areas were inspected and found to have adequate heating, lighting, and ventilation. Furniture and equipment was age-appropriate equipment but not kept in good condition, as it was observed that children’s furniture such as tables were not clean, sticky, and not maintained. Drinking water was not readily accessible to children, the water fountain located in the preschool room is non-operational and the potable water is located in the kitchen, which could not be feasibly provided to children without compromising proper supervision rendering the water inaccessible. Bathrooms were sanitary but not stocked with necessary supplies, such as paper towels, toilet paper, or toilet seat covers. Bathroom fixtures were operational. Food preparation and storage areas were clean. Cleaning products and hazardous items were stored separately from food and kept inaccessible to children. There was no trash receptacle available or within reach of the changing table where staff could appropriately dispose of soiled diapers.

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.

The outdoor play area was observed to be fully fenced and free of hazards. There were no bodies of water on the property. Age-appropriate play equipment was in good condition with adequate cushioning material
underneath. Shade was available outdoors.

Required postings that were displayed, including the license and emergency disaster plan. There was no
parents’ rights or personal rights posted. The facility uses paper for sign-in/sign-out; during the visit, only five out of seven children were signed in. All hazardous material was locked and inaccessible. Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors were present and operational.

All infant/toddler furniture and equipment were observed to be age-appropriate and in good repair. There were no walkers, bouncy seats, exersaucers, or jumpers in the room. The changing table for diapering
infants/toddlers was located outside of the room where toddlers were in care. The changing table was within arm’s reach of a sink. Toys were safe, free of sharp edges, splinters, protruding points. The toddlers in care were observed with small parts that could be swallowed, such as broken crayons and pieces of latex gloves. No cribs were currently used by children in care. Bedding was stored separately but not maintained in a way that they would not be in contact with the bedding of other children as the bedding was observed to be hanging out of the children’s designated cubbies with insufficient space to properly store. Staff stated that infants/toddlers are under visual supervision when napping. No sleep logs were available for review. The toddler room was not in use or able to be used due to structural damage including ceiling panels broken on the floor.

LPA discussed the safe sleep regulations with licensee and facility representative and discussed the Child
Care Licensing Safe Sleep webpage athttps://www.cdss.ca.gov/inforesources/child-care-licensing/public-information-and-resources/safe-sleep as an additional resource. LPA also informed licensee and facility representative of the importance of checking for and removing any recalled infant devices on the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) website at https://www.cpsc.gov/ and recommended they register all infant devices with the CPSC to be notified of any recalls on their purchased equipment.

The LPAs could not review children or staff records because, per the facility representative, all documentation and records required to be kept in the center were locked and no facility representative was able to provide them to the department upon request.
