An unannounced inspection was conducted on 2/20/2024 in response to a self report that was received by the licensing department on 2/14/2024 regarding allegations in the areas of supervision and special feeding needs. On 2/20/2024, the inspector was on site from approximately 1:20 pm to 2:32 pm. Interviews with staff were completed, observations were made in the center, and documentation was reviewed.
The preponderance of the evidence gathered during the investigation supports the allegation; therefore, the self report is determined to be valid. See the violation notice for more details.
