Upon LPA review of the facility’s Guardian Roster, it was revealed that E1 did not have a current criminal background clearance associated to the facility. LPA spoke with Director via telephone call and explained that E1 did not have a criminal background clearance currently associated to the facility which will result in a citation will be given along with a Civil Penalty. During inspection, E1 left the facility and Assistant Director (AD) arrived to the facility to meet with LPA.
