Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) James Wilkerson arrived at this facility to conclude an investigation into the above allegation. LPA conducted a visit on 09/21/22 and extended the investigation at that time. LPA toured the facility and conducted census. It was alleged that there were children left unattended in a bathtroom. During the visit today LPA entered and observed the two classrooms from inside the Observation Room which is located between the Giraffes Room and the Elephants Room. Inside the Elephants Room there are two bathrooms. LPA observed two children using each bathroom at separate time without visual supervision. The Elephants Room at this time had six children and two staff members. From the observation by LPA that two different children did use the bathroom unattended, the preponderance of evidence has been met and the above allegation is SUBSTANTIATED.

An exit interview was conducted, appeal rights discussed and provided along with a copy of this report to the facility on this date. A Notice of Site Visit was posted.
