Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

At 9:20am on 2/26/2026, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Matthew Gallo met with facility representative Paolo Sarmiento to conduct a case management visit related to deficiencies discovered through the course of a complaint investigation. During today's visit, LPA observed a census of 6 school aged children supervised by 1 staff. During the course of a complaint investigation, LPA determined that the facility did not follow Title 22 requirements to report to licensing any unusual incident that threatens the physical or emotional health and safety of a child. Based on staff interview, the facility was told by a parent that they brought their child to a physician due to nail polish binding to their scalp after an incident at the facility. The facility did not report this to licensing. A Type B Title 22 deficiency is cited on the following LIC809-D Exit interview conducted and report was revealed with the facility representative, Paolo Sarmiento. A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days.
