25 | On 5/28/24 around 2:50pm Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Sheena Chin conducted an unannounced Case Management - annual continuation inspection at the facility. LPA met with the director, Yasheva Caesar and explained the purpose of today’s visit. The facility has a minimum day today and children were picked up at 1:30pm. The director stated that the facility had a minimum day on every fourth Tuesday each month.
LPA conducted an unannounced annual inspection on 5/13/24 when LPA observed an air conditioning unit without barriers at the outside of the #600. LPA advised the director to keep this A/C unit inaccessible to children in care. The site director and the compliance program manager stated that the facility would put a fence or a barrier around the A/C unit to make the unit inaccessible to children. LPA issued a Technical Assistance LIC9102 on 5/13/24.
During today’s inspection LPA observed the A/C unit was exposed at the outside of the #600 and accessible to children. The associate program director insisted over the phone that the department did not set a due date for the facility to complete screening the A/C. LPA advised the associate program director that LIC9102 was not a citation. The associate program director stated that the SJB Child Development Center has been working on finding contractors for the project but was unable to provide proof of the project progress.
A regulatory violation was observed during the inspection and a citation was issued.
Exit interview was conducted, where this report, the citation, plan of correction, and appeal rights were reviewed and discussed with the director, Yasheva Caesar.
