On 10/05/2021 at 09:00am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jonathan Williams met with Applicant, Maria Torres, for the purposes of conducting an announced prelicensing inspection. Present during today's inspection was the Applicant, the Applicant's fingerprint cleared and associated husband, and two unfingerprinted adults. Per Applicant, the two unfingerprinted adults are the Applicant's son and his girlfriend. The home was toured to conduct a health and safety inspection.

On-limit-areas: Living room, dining room, TV room, hallway bathroom, backyard.
Off-limit-areas: Entire second floor, downstairs bedrooms including master bathroom, garage, kitchen, additional dwelling unit attached to the side of the home.
Isolation area: Area of the TV room.

The facility is a 2 story home owned by the Applicant consisting of six bedrooms (two on first floor and four on the second floor), three bathrooms, kitchen, living room, dining room, "TV room", and backyard. An additional dwelling unit (ADU) is located on the side of the home and is rented out to three adult tenants by the Applicant. The ADU is not accessible from within the home and enters through the left side of the house. None of the tenants are fingerprint cleared.

The home is neat and clean. Medications, toxins, and cleaning compounds were observed to be accessible to children via unlocked doors in the on-limits bathroom. Per Applicant statement at 9:46am, there are no firearms in the facility. Per Applicant statement at 10:12am, no pets are kept in the home. Applicant tested carbon monoxide/smoke detector (combined) and LPA observed them to be functional at 12:00pm. The backyard was toured at 9:49am. LPA observed gardening equipment accessible in the backyard as well as an unlocked shed. The backyard contains a raised area with a ledge next to a concrete surface that lacks cushioning material to absorb falls. LPA did not observe any bodies of water on the facility premises at this time.

Incidents must be reported within 24 hours by phone, fax, or electronic mail.
