Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

On June 24, 2021, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Carol Heath conducted a follow-up complaint inspection to the Giani Family Child Care and met with the licensee assistant Morena Giron. The purpose of the inspection was to deliver findings for the above complaint allegation. On May 19, 2021, child #1 sustained an injury to the head causing a cut while in the licensed childcare facility. The licensee failed to notify the licensing department and parents of the injury. Based on LPA observations, physical evidence and interviews, it was determined that the licensee failed to report CCLD and child’s parent regarding the incident that occurred within the facility. When the licensee was informed about the injury to the child’s head, the licensee did not notify the Department by telephone or in writing within the mandated timeframe. Based on the information obtained, there is a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the licensee failed to meet the reporting requirements. Therefore, the above allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. Appeal Rights were provided and discussed with the Licensee and deficiencies were cited. Exit interview conducted and a copy of the report was left with the Licensee. Type B deficiencies are being cited. See LIC 9099 D for deficiencies.
