Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Tricia Danielson arrived unannounced to the facility to conclude an investigation into the allegation listed above. LPA met with Director Yi-Cheng Hu and explained the purpose of the visit. During today's visit, the facility had a total of 92 children enrolled and 22 children were present.
Regarding the allegation "Staff inappropriately handled child in care", it was alleged that Staff #1 (S1) restrained Child #1 (C1) with her arms by pinning down C1's arms and hands while in the front office area.
Interviews conducted with the two staff who were present during the described incident revealed S1 did restrain C1 to prevent C1 from exiting the building. Based on interviews conducted, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be substantiated. California Code of Regulations, are being cited on the attached LIC 9099-D. An exit interview was conducted, and this report was reviewed with and provided to Director Hu. Appeal Rights were also discussed and provided. An LIC 9213- Notice of Site Visit was also issued and must remain posted near the main entrance for 30 days. Non-compliance with posting will result in a $100 fine. This report must be accessible to the public for three years.
