The facility has a budget for 60 staff to staff the dorm and the HOPE Center; however, the documentation noted 5 vacancies and several more out on medical or other leave. Random dates were selected within the cycle and staffing was viewed to ensure adequate personnel were present. We found there were no programs or other activities that were held back due to an inadequate number of staff being present at all levels. Youth were also questioned in this area, and they all stated that no programs or activities have been held back or cancelled due to lack of staff. The facility appeared to be staffed appropriately for the number of youths housed during this time; however, we suggest ☒ deciding on a minimum staffing number for ☐ ☐ each shift. Situations change rapidly, and it is imperative the facility knows what minimum they should staff to. The staff we spoke with noted that staffing is short but manageable. There has been no need for ordered overtime or mandatory holdovers, as the camp staff voluntarily arranged internally to fill the vacant shifts. Some split shifts and some take full shifts as needed. They work together to make sure all shifts are covered. There has been no line staff movement into the camps in a year and the camp is operating with a significant vacancy rate, especially on the late-night shift. Several night staff are out on various leave statuses. While youth receive all required areas of Title 15, Staff are frustrated because they want to do more, and know they could if they had all their available staff positions to do so. The camp should have 80 staff assigned but they have been working regularly with 60 for months due to the staffing crisis in the Juvenile Halls. (b) ensure that no required services shall be denied Policy Section 206: Staffing because of insufficient numbers of staff on duty absent ☒ exigent circumstances; ☐ ☐ No required service has been denied. 7261 Los Angeles Camp Rockey CAMP PRO 23-24 Page 4 of 54 A453 JUV PRO eff. 1/2019 (23-24).dot TITLE 15 SECTION YES NO N/A P/P REFERENCE – COMMENTS (c) have a sufficient number of supervisory level staff to Policy Section 206: Staffing ensure adequate supervision of all staff members; The facility is managed by an onsite Director and an Assistant Director who are on site ☒ Monday – Friday.

There are 6 clinicians who work directly with the youth, 1 substance abuse counselor, and 1 TAY navigator. Youth attend DBT, substance abuse, and any other services as applicable to each youth. There is no difference in service depending on housing location, for example, if a youth may be held in the HOPE Center for a Specialized Supervision Plan. All programs and services continue.
