Per interviews conducted, and information gathered, the investigation revealed the Licensee, Jacqueline White allowed an adult to work at the facility without first obtaining a criminal record clearance. The uncleared adult was observed by LPA Benson at the time of the visit, during the physical inspection of the facility. It was disclosed that the uncleared adult has been working at the facility for several years. Licensee stated she ensured the person was clear and associated to the facility and she never requested to disassociate the individual. LPA informed the Licensee the Regional Office received a request to disassociate the adult staff member on 07/17/2020.LPA Benson reminded the facility staff that prior to an adult (18 years of age and older) working, residing, or volunteering in a licensed facility, they must have a criminal record clearance or a criminal record exemption as required by the Department, and be associated to the facility.
Based on interviews with pertinent parties and records obtained throughout the investigation, the department has determined the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the allegation of Criminal Record Clearance is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. See LIC9099-D for deficiency cited per California Code of Regulations Title 22, Division 12. A Civil Penalty has been assessed during this inspection. Payment is due when billed and the check(s) or money orders shall be made payable to the “California Department of Social Services”. YOU WILL RECEIVE AN INVOICE IN THE MAIL.
