On 12/19/25 at 2:48pm, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Sydney Sims and Erica Laird conducted an unannounced complaint inspection, and met with the Director Jessie Radcliff. It was alleged that Facility failed to report unusual incident report as required specifically that child C1 sustained an injury on 09/23/25 that was not reported to the Community Care Licensing Regional Office as required.

The Director was interviewed on 09/25/25 at 11:41am and admitted that an incident report was not sent to the Community Care Licensing Department (CCLD). Director stated that the reason the incident report was not sent out to CCLD after C1's eye injury was because the Director did not think that the injury warranted an incident report to be filed.

Two of staff (S1 – S2) were interviewed on 09/25/25 and had knowledge of the incident stating that on 09/23/25 child C1 was outside on a bike slamming into another child C2 on a bike and sustained an injury that caused C1’s eye to have blood coming out of it. S1 stated that S1 took the child to the Director and informed the Director that there was blood coming out of the child’s eye.

On 09/25/25 the facility was toured, and the LPA observed the playground where the incident occurred and observed that the bikes being used were age appropriate.

On 09/25/25 facility records were reviewed and there was no documentation on file that showed that the incident on 09/23/25 had been reported to the CCLD as required.

During the investigation LPA conducted interviews with the Licensee, and staff, and reviewed supporting documents that supported the allegations.

Based on the evidence obtained, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be substantiated. California Code of Regulations, (Title 22), is being cited on the attached LIC 9099D

Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with the Director Jessie Radcliff. Appeal rights were provided.

A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days. Failure to comply with posting requirements shall result in an immediate civil penalty of $100.
