Correction check·August 20, 2024

At 11:05am on 8/20/2024, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Matthew Gallo and Fabian Schwartz met with facility representative Paolo Sarmiento for the purpose of a plan of correction visit. Upon arrival, LPAs observed a total census of 19 preschool children supervised by 4 staff. Licensee was previously cited a Type A deficiency on 7/11/2024 for aides providing care to children without being under the direct supervision of a qualified teacher. The plan of correction dictated that the director would provide LPA of staff schedule for the week of 7/15/24-7/19/24 that shows a qualified teacher being on site to supervise aides whenever they are with children are present, and that LPA would conduct return visit to ensure compliance. LPA received the staff schedule by the POC due date, and observed during today's inspection that all aides were operating under the supervision of qualified teachers. The plan of correction has been fulfilled, and the citation of 7/11/2024 has been cleared. Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with the facility representative, Paolo Sarmiento. A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days. Appeal rights were provided.
