Interviews revealed that staff members interact with children in care in a respectful, caring, and engaging manner. The evidence obtained throughout the course of the investigation was therefore unable to corroborate the allegation noted above.

Although the allegation may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove that the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.
An exit interview was conducted with Director, Vivian Bennett. Director was provided with Appeal Rights (LIC 9058) and a Notice of Site Visit (LIC 9213). Notice of Site Visit must be posted for 30 days or a civil penalty of $100 may apply.
