On May 9, 2022 at 1:18 PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Dean Thompson conducted an unannounced Case Management Deficiency visit and met with Director Mary Gossett. LPA conducted the Covid-19 screening questions prior to entering the facility. Present during today's inspection were 40 children and nine (9) staff.

While touring the facility, LPA Thompson observed staff (S1) caring for children. LPA Thompson reviewed the Facility Personnel Report Summary and found S1 was not associated to the facility. LPA also reviewed records and it was determined S1 was not fingerprint cleared.

LPA Thompson asked Director Mary Gossett how long S1 has been employed and caring for children in care, Director stated since February 16, 2022.

The following deficiency is being cited under Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 1 - 102370(d)(1) Criminal Record Clearance. See attached LIC 809-D.
