Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

Report continued from page one At the time of this incident, C1s classroom did not record any child\342\200\231s diapering activity. The Department received photographic evidence documenting C1 at 4:19pm on January 19, 2023. The evidence shows a diaper drooping almost to C1s knees. The investigation could not conclude that C1 was left in the same diaper that C1 was dropped of in. However, based on confidential interviews, and record review, even though C1 may have been changed at 2:40pm, interviews confirmed C1 was observed in a soiled diaper at 4:00pm. Therefore, the staff did not meet C1 diapering needs. The allegation is valid because the preponderance of the evidence has been met, therefore, the above allegation is found to be Substantiated. California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 1, regulation 101223 (a)(2) Personal Rights, is being cited on the attached LIC 9099D. An exit Interview was conducted, and a copy of the report and Notice of the Site Visit were read and provided to the facility representative, Edna Day.
