Incident investigation·October 6, 2021

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) A. Lucero conducted an unannounced case management inspection due to an incident that occurred on 09/30/2021. LPA met with Director Sachin Sangani. The purpose of the inspection was to follow-up on an incident that was reported to the department. Interviews were conducted with Director who provided LPA with the facility's sick policy from the Parent Handbook that was updated on 08/10/2021. The policy, which was signed by child #1's authorized representative, states that if a child becomes ill, the authorized representative will be notified and will have to arrange for pick up of the child. On the date of this incident, child #1 had a fever above the facility's sick policy. LPA obtained a copy of the Temperature Log and sign-in/out sheet for Child #1. Based upon information received from the interviews conducted and documents received, it was determined that child #1 had a temperature above the facility's updated Sick Policy that was signed by child #1's authorized representative with a signature date of 08/14/2021. No follow-up is necessary as it appears that the facility was following their Sick Policy. There were no deficiencies observed in regards to today's visit. The Notice of Site Visit (LIC 9213) – must remain posted for 30 days during the hours of operation after each site visit by a licensing representative. Exit interview was conducted with Sachin Sangani. Appeal Rights given.
