25 | On November 5, 2024, at 12:20 PM, Licensing Program Analyst’s (LPAs) Anastasia Flores, Brian Morris, and Licensing Program Manager (LPM) Pauline Beschorner, conducted a case management that resulted during an investigation on a complaint received in our office on 09/17/24. During the investigation, our office received information in regard to a child that may have run out of the facility, under the care of the Child Care Center (CCC) and that it was never reported to Community Care Licensing.
Four out of six interviews disclosed C1 ran out of the classroom and out of the facility on at least one or more occasion. Confidential records dated 4/26/24, disclosed that C1 ran out of the facility at 4:40PM, and the Director and Assistant director were notified. Three out of four confidential interview disclosed other parents were exiting through that gate after they had picked up their children and C1 had followed behind one of the parents. Interview with director denied allegation the parents have ever use the gate to leave the facility and that the alarm has been on the gate forever. One confidential interviewed disclosed the parents are not supposed to go through the gate across from the two-year-old classroom, but admitted there were a few times that the gate was open when the facility had workers there at the CCC. Three out of five confidential interviews disclosed the alarm on the gate was there but did not always work and the alarm was fixed a few months ago when C1 had run from the CCC. Interview with Director and denied allegation that C1 had ever ran out of the CCC.
Based on confidential interviews and confidential records reviewed, the allegation that Child#1 (C1) ran from CCC, was proven without a doubt. The facility is being cited for 101212(d)(1)(C ) Reporting requirements and 101229 (a)(1) Responsibility for providing care and supervision. See 809D for deficiencies.
A copy of this report, Confidential names list (LIC811) and appeal rights were reviewed and handed to Director, Tara Martinez.
A notice of site visit was provided and must remain posted for 30 days.
