25 | Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs), Cortney Nelson and Deanna Villagrana, met with Licensee, Elizabeth Gonzalez, and explained purpose of visit, to conduct case management visit and amend civil penalties issued on 2/14/2023 & 4/13/2023. Upon arrival, LPAs were admitted into the home by the Licensee and observed there were eleven children (1 infant, 10 preschool-age, 1 school-age) in care with the Licensee and Assistant, Claudia, present.
Civil penalties were assessed on 2/14/2023 & 4/13/2023 for repeat violations totalling $1,000 for each, however the civil penalties assessed should have been $250 as the original citation for over capacity, is not a zero tolerance violation. LPA reviewed LIC421FC with Elizabeth and obtained signature. LIC421FC was generated as print only and a scanned copy will be maintained in the facility file.
During today's inspection, LPAs observed that the Assistant, Claudia, did not have criminal record clearance. A Livescan was completed on 5/4/2023 to obtain clearances, however the facility number was incorrectly inputted, resulting in no clearances associated to the day care home. A letter was generated by Guardian on 5/5/2023 requesting criminal record statement (LIC508) for Claudia. LPAs advised Elizabeth that Claudia will need to redo her fingerprinting. Upon review of Claudia's staff file, it was observed that she did not have proof of required immunizations, negative tuberculosis test, or Mandated Reporter training.
LPAs informed licensee, Elizabeth Gonzalez, that this report dated (9/27/2023) documents one Type A citation which shall be posted for 30 consecutive days as there is immediate risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of children in care. |
