complaint·November 8, 2023

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Andrea Medlin met with facility representative for this conclusionary complaint investigation. Purpose of visit explained. There are 17 children present. The facility was previously having a problem with rodents underneath facililty area which caused fleas to come inside preschool areas resulting in some children getting flea bites. Exterminator's were called and have fumugated the areas several times and the dead animals underneath have all been removed. All the openings/vents on the outside have been checked and repaired (when needed). Parent's were notified of the probem on an ongoing basis and provided updates when available. The problem has since been corrected and children are able to be back inside their regular preschool areas. Facility took many measures to resolve the issue and to date, the problem has been resolved. Based on the investigation, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be substantiated. The deficiencies cited on the following pages are in violation of the California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 1: Notice of site visit provided and must remain posted for 30 days.
