present during the time of the alleged incident.

Based on interviews, LPA is unable to corroborate the allegations stating staff inappropriately restrained a day care child, Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the allegations did or did not occur, therefore the allegations are unsubstantiated.

An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report along with the appeal rights were provided to Director, Blanca Flores. A notice of site visit was handed to licensee and must remain posted for 30 days.
