At 11:05 am on 9/13/2021, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Chavez arrived at the facility to conduct a 10-day complaint visit. LPA informed Administrator Kirk Klotthor of the reason for the visit. During record review and interviews, LPA determined that the facility has five (5) staff currently employed who do not have fingerprint clearance.

Administrator confirmed that Staff #1 (S1) was hired 8/09/21 and presently works in the facility from 7:00 am to 3:30 pm. S1 had already left for the day. Administrator phoned S1 and informed to not return to work until fingerprint clearance is obtained.

Administrator promptly spoke with S2, S3 and S4, explained the situation, and asked S2, S3, and S4 to leave the premises immediately. S2, S3 and S4 left the facility and will return once they have obtained a criminal background clearance.

Administrator stated that Staff #5 (S5) was hired on 8/10/21 and works 6:30 am – 2:00 pm. S5 was not working today. Administrator spoke with S5, explained the situation, and informed S5 that S5 can return once the fingerprint clearance has been obtained.
