Brief Summary: On February 16,2022 , Community Care Licensing received an incident report for 02/15/2022 reporting restraint of Child #1 by Staff #3 & Staff #4 . LPA Phillips obtained video footage of the incident and observed Staff #3 initiate a a Pro Act restraint by grasping Child #1's left arm and pushed toward wall. LPA Phillips observed Staff # 4 grasp Child #1 right arm to begin wall restraint.

During the investigation LPA Phillips conducted confidential interview, reviewed facility Pro Act certificates and video footage. Requested copies of Pro Act trainers current certification. Based on gathered information there is corroborating evidence that reveals Child #1 was improperly restrained by Staff # 3. The preponderance of evidence standard has been met and the Department has therefore determined the facility is cited for violating Child #1's personal rights.
