Inspector Notes

An unannounced inspection was initiated on 2/26/2025 and completed on 3/10/2025 in response to a complaint report received by the licensing office on 2/24/2025 relating to allegations of administration, medication administration, and special care. The inspector reviewed 1 child?s record on-site. This inspection included document review, a tour of the facility, interviews, and observations.

The preponderance of evidence gathered during the investigation supports the allegation; therefore, this complaint is determined to be valid. Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliance with applicable standards or law and the violations are documented on the violation notice issued to the program. Though not a part of the original complaint, other violations were found related to administration, special care provisions and programs are documented on the violation notice issued to the program.
Inspection amended 3/14/2025.
