Inspector Notes

An unannounced inspection was initiated on 7/16/2025 and completed on 7/16/2025 in response to complaints received by the licensing office on 6/20/2025 and 6/30/2025. The allegations involved the areas of Administration, Physical Plant, Special Care Provisions and Emergencies, and Access to Minor's Records as outlined in the Standards. The inspector reviewed ten children?s records and seven staff records on-site. This inspection included document review, interviews, and a tour of the facility.

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.

Though not a part of the original complaint, violations that were not reported were also found related to the standard 8VAC20-780-80 involving reports and are documented on the violation notice issued to the program
