32 | LS denied the allegations, acknowledging that she was required to comply with court order(s), and claiming that she never released any child(ren) to any person who was not authorized for pick up or was not listed on a child’s Identification and Emergency Information form (LIC 700). LS did convey an incident in which she was hesitant to allow an adult to enter the facility to pick up C1 due to that adult’s actions surrounding the current custody situation but further claimed that she never said that the adult could not visit the facility.
Through the course of the investigation starting from 05/19/21 through 08/20/21, LPA interviewed LS, three adults, and five parents and reviewed documents. Some children were not verbal, too young to interview, or not available to be interviewed. Multiple statements provided by adults and parents did not report concern(s) or any incident(s) of LS not following an issued court order(s), as well as any incident(s) of LS releasing any child to an unauthorized representative. One statement reported LS releasing a child to a non-authorized family member, however; the child’s Identification and Emergency Information confirmed that the family member was authorized to pick up the child.
Based on the investigation, there’s not a preponderance of evidence to support the allegations and therefore; the allegations are unsubstantiated. This report was discussed and reviewed with LS and an Exit interview was conducted with LS. Notice of Site Visit shall be posted for 30 days. There were no title 22 deficiencies cited during this visit. Appeal Rights were provided. |
