13 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Christopher Bello arrived at the facility at approximately 8:55am. LPA met with Director Leslie Dillon to open and close a complaint investigation, regarding the above allegation. It was alleged that staff is not adhering to the mask mandate. Upon arrival LPA observed at approximately 9:00am through the window of the facility the director and two staff members not wearing a mask. Upon taking a tour of the facility LPA observed a third teacher without a mask. Today’s census was 44 children with four teachers and director. Leslie stated that staff do carry the mask on them but take them on and off throughout the day for phonics training for the children. During the investigation LPA made observations and conducted interviews that corroborated the allegation. Based on LPA’s investigation, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore, the above allegations are found to be SUBSTANTIATED. LPA consulted with director to adhere to the mask mandate. There were no Title 22 deficiencies during today’s investigation. An exit interview was conducted and a Notice of Site Visit posted. |
