complaint·December 8, 2022

Director states the 10 days were from 9/2/22- 9/16/22 which did not include the weekends. LPA asked if contact was made by the center or parent to follow up on the status of the specialized teacher. Director states the parent did not communicate nor returned to the center, and the center denies attempting to contact the parent for follow up. LPA reviewed a Spanish copy of the Notice of Action issued to the parents of C1 dated 10/6/22 which indicated services for the child were terminated due to the fact the center cannot meet the needs of the child. LPA also obtained a copy of the admission agreement signed on 10/13/2021 signed by C1's parent. The admission agreement was reviewed and determined the conditions under which the child was terminated was not covered in the admission agreement. The admission agreement states "Failure to complete the enrollment process will result in dis-enrollment of services." Based on LPA's observations, interviews which were conducted, documents gathered and record review, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 12 or Health and Safety Code, are being cited on the attached LIC 9099-D. Notice of Site Visit has been given (LIC9213). The notice shall be posted for 30 consecutive days. Failure to maintain posting as required will result in a $100.00 civil penalty.
