Inspector Notes

An unannounced inspection was initiated on 07/31/2024 and completed on 08/02/2024 in response to a complaint received by the licensing inspector on 07/31/2024 relating to allegations of physical plant and safety. The inspector interviewed staff virtually on 07/31/2024. This inspection included an interview with onsite administration.

The preponderance of evidence gathered during the investigation supports the allegation(s); therefore, the 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.
