Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Salene Mayberry met with Director, Shirley Huddleson to deliver findings for the above complaint allegation.
It was alleged that “ staff do not prevent children from sharing water bottles”. During the investigation LPA toured the facility, observed staff interactions with children in care, conducted interviews with parents and staff and obtained a current roster. Interviews revealed that staff have procedures in place to prevent children from sharing water bottles and the majority of children only use their own bottles.
Based on conflicting statements and lack of clear corroborating evidence, the above allegation could not be substantiated or dismissed. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the finding is UNSUBSTANTIATED.
An Exit interview was conducted in which the report was reviewed and discussed with the Director. LPA provided a copy of the report to Director. A Notice of Site visit was posted by LPA and Director understands it must remain posted for 30 days.
