Inspector Notes

An unannounced inspection was initiated on 07/01/2024 and completed on 08/28/2024, in response to a complaint received by the licensing office on 05/22/2024 relating to allegations of supervision. The inspector reviewed one child?s records and two staff records on-site. This
inspection included document review, tour of the facility, interviews, and observations. Additional documentation was reviewed virtually on 08/28/24.

The preponderance of evidence gathered during the investigation does not support the allegation; therefore, the complaint is determined to be not valid. Though not a part of the original complaint, violations that were not reported were found related to records and are documented on the violation notice issued to the program.
