S3 furthermore disclosed that they did not directly observe the incident between C1, C2, and C3, but rather, that they became aware of what had transpired between the children after noticing C2 upset and proceeding to speak with C2. Interview with C1 also revealed that staff did not observe the incident. During an interview with S2, S2 stated they were not aware of the requirement to report unusual incidents to licensing, and that the protocol they were trained on only involved reporting to “The Y” via a QR code posted on the classroom wall. S2 did, however, indicate to LPA awareness of their requirement to report suspected child abuse or neglect to Child Protective Services (CPS). Based on the totality of the evidence gathered throughout the course of the investigation, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegations are found to be SUBSTANTIATED. During today's inspection, two (2) Type B Deficiencies are being issued under Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations, and Health and Safety Codes (See LIC9099D). A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days or a civil penalty of $100 may apply. Appeal Rights were provided to Director. Exit interview was conducted and report was reviewed with the Director, Daiana Baez.
