13 | On November 20, 2025, at 3:15 PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) William Chancellor arrived unannounced at ABC Child Care Village (CCC) and met with Director Candice Lawrence. The purpose of the visit was to deliver the findings of a complaint investigation. LPA Chancellor had initiated the investigation on November 3, 2025, and conducted a follow-up visit on November 5, 2025, during which a census was taken, relevant documentation was obtained, and four confidential interviews (S1–S4) were completed.
Community Care Licensing (CCL) received the complaint on October 24, 2025, alleging that the facility failed to report an epidemic outbreak. A review of records confirmed that between October 6 and October 22, twelve children were sent home with symptoms including rash and/or fever. By October 21, 2025, CCC had been notified of at least two confirmed cases of Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease. However, a notification letter was not drafted until October 22, 2025, and LPA corroborated that at least nine families were not notified of the outbreak in a timely manner.
