Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

On the date and time listed, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Nasha King arrived at the facility to conduct an inspection for a separate purpose. LPA toured the facility, took census, and verified staff’s criminal record clearances and associations to the facility. While touring the facility and verifying facility associations, LPA King, observed 5 staff members present and working at the facility without an eligible Criminal Record Clearance. 4 staff members were fingerprinted and cleared but did not have appropriate associations to this facility's license nor the facility’s administrative facility (330911148), while the other staff member had no record of a criminal record clearance. Based on appeal, although your staff did not submit fingerprint transfer requests to the correct email address for four staff, you did submit the requests to the Department in good faith and, for three of them, in accordance with regulation. You admit that one of the transfer requests was submitted four days after the employee started working in the facility. You also submitted documentation that one employee was fingerprinted through a Live Scan vendor who input the facility number incorrectly, resulting in the staff not being associated to your facility. For these reasons, the citation will be amended to reflect that the association request for one staff person was not submitted timely, resulting in a potential risk (Type B) and a civil penalty assessment of $400.00 ($100.00 assessed per day worked before the transfer was requested). See LIC 809D for amended cited deficiency. A Civil Penalty was assessed during the previous inspection. Payment was made on 8/25/23. An exit interview was conducted, a copy of this report and 809D was provided. Upon receipt of this report, the Director shall post the Notice of Site Visit and it shall remain posted for 30 days.
