Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

On September 14, 2021 at 3:15 PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Cowan conducted an initial complaint inspection. LPA met with site director and the purpose of the inspection was explained. During today's inspection, LPA toured facility and interviewed director and 1 staff. Through interviewing director, LPA found that children ages 2 and above are not required nor encouraged to wear masks inside of the facility. Director states that she is concerned that masks may become dirty by ending up on the floor or sand box. Licensee states that she continually runs air purifiers in both classrooms, leaves the windows open for ventilation, and runs the fans to help protect against Covid-19 in the facility. Based on LPA’s observation and interviews which were conducted, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is founded to be SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, (Title 22, Division & Chapter number), are being cited on the attached LIC 9099D. This report is emailed to site director with a request for reply showing proof of receipt.

  • PERSONAL RIGHTS

    101223(a)(2) Personal Rights(a) The licensee shall ensure that each child is accorded the following personal rights:(2) To be accorded safe, healthful and comfortable accommodations, furnishings and equipment to meet his/her needs. This requirement was not met as evidenced by: Based on the interview with director, on 9-14-21, site director did not ensure the personal rights of persons in care to safe and healthful accommodations and engaged in conduct inimical to the health, welfare, and safety of persons in care, in that facility staff Suzanne Wheeler did not require face coverings in the facility, as required by the CA Department of Public Health Guidance on the Use of Face Coverings issued July 28, 2021, and an individual mask exception did not apply.
