Complaint·May 26, 2023

Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur; therefore, the finding is UNSUBSTANTIATED. It was alleged Personal Rights were violated and staff did not meet a child\342\200\231s needs. LPA interviewed assistants and asked about diapering, feeding and consoling crying children. Although staff agreed there isn't a diaper changing schedule, they also agreed that they change the diapers every hour and half or as needed. They all take turns checking and changing diapers and potty training as scheduled. Feeding is done as a group and all staff help with preparing and feeding children. Crying babies are given water to help calm them down. Babies are held, checked to see if needs are met, placed in a rocker/swing to help soothe them, and/or placed down to try to engage in an activity. Parents interviewed did not have concerns about their children's needs not being met. The one verbal child likes to attend the facility and stated the baby cries if it needs milk. Based on the lack of clear corroborating evidence, the above allegation could not be substantiated or dismissed. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur; therefore, the finding is UNSUBSTANTIATED. An exit interview was conducted in which the report was reviewed and discussed with the Licensee, Jazary Alvarado. LPA provided a copy of the report and Appeal Rights to Licensee. A Notice of Site Visit was posted by LPA and Licensee understands it must remain posted for 30 days. A Failure to comply with posting requirements shall result in an immediate civil penalty of $100.
