Inspector Notes

An unannounced inspection was initiated and completed on 09/23/2025 with a local agency in response to a complaint received by the licensing office on 09/22/2025 relating to allegations of physical abuse.

The inspector reviewed 3 children?s records and 1 staff record on-site. This inspection included document review, tour of the facility, interviews, and observations.

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 administration, physical equipment, and nutrition; and are documented on the violation notice issued to the program.

Please complete the plan of correction (POC) and date to be corrected sections for each violation cited on the violation notice. Specify how the violation will be or has been corrected. Submit your POC within five (5) business days from today, which will be the close of business on 11/10/2025. A POC submitted after this date will not appear on the public website.
