May 22, 2018 Brian Richart, Chief Probation Officer El Dorado County Probation Department 3974 Durock Road, Ste. 205 Shingle Springs, CA 95682 BOARD OF STATE AND COMMUNITY CORRECTIONS BIENNIAL INSPECTION WELFARE AND INSTITUTIONS CODE SECTIONS 209 AND 885 Dear Chief Richart, On December 5, 6, 7, and 8, 2017, Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) staff conducted the 2016-2018 biennial inspection of the Placerville Juvenile Hall and South Lake Tahoe Treatment Center (SLTTC), including the Challenge Camp, as required by Welfare and Institutions Code Sections 209 and 885. This inspection was conducted to determine compliance with the Minimum Standards for Juvenile Facilities as outlined in Titles 15 and 24 of the California Code of Regulations and the federal Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA). Inspection Scope: The inspection consisted of a review of applicable policies and procedures governing the operation of the facility, a review of local inspections required by relevant statutes and Title 15, Section 1313, and a site visit which included a review of facility procedures and the physical plant. We also interviewed facility staff, partnering staff, and youth during our visit. Deputy Chief Probation Officer Andrew Craven and Assistant Superintendents Christian Melrose and Kaci L. Smith, were instrumental during the visit, providing information and background data, clarifying procedural issues and managing all records. As in the past, the facility and staff were well prepared for our visit. The complete BSCC inspection report is enclosed and consists of: • this transmittal letter; • the Title 15 Procedures checklist outlining Title 15 requirements for the Juvenile Hall and the Juvenile Commitment Facility; • a Physical Plant Evaluation outlining Title 24 requirements for the design for both the Juvenile Hall and the Juvenile Commitment Facility; and • a Living Area Space Evaluation summarizing the physical plant configuration of both the Juvenile Hall and the Juvenile Commitment Facility. 7077, 7079, 7081 El Dorado ltr Brian Richart, Chief Probation Officer Page 2 Local Inspections In addition to the biennial inspection by the BSCC, Title 15, Section 1313 and statutes also require inspections from the following: county building inspector or person designated by the Board of Supervisors; fire authority having jurisdiction;1 local health officer;2 county superintendent of schools; juvenile court and the juvenile justice commission. 3 Results of those inspections are considered a part of this report. The dates of the local inspections may be found in the accompanying Procedures Checklist. There were no areas of noncompliance noted. We encourage the practice of maintaining a permanent file for historical copies of all inspections. This file should be the first point of reference when preparing for all future inspections. Title 15 Inspection During our inspection of Placerville Juvenile Hall and South Lake Tahoe Treatment Center, we reviewed the El Dorado County Probation Department Juvenile Institutions Policies and Procedures manual. Our audit consisted of a review of only those policies and procedures related specifically to the applicable regulations included in Title 15, Minimum Standards for Juvenile Facilities.4 On the day of the inspection, we discussed several policies and procedures with staff and suggested edits which might bring more clarity and specificity to the manual. In particular, we discussed the need to add procedures to the suicide prevention program policy which will provide clarity on 1:1 supervision and close observation supervision of youth placed on suicide watch. All agreed-upon changes were completed prior to the submission of this report; no issues of noncompliance were identified in our review of the El Dorado County Probation Department Juvenile Institutions Policies and Procedures. We also reviewed pertinent documentation to ensure that practices are consistent with policies and Title 15. This review reflected that practice conforms to policy and there were no issues of noncompliance. For further information, please see the accompanying Procedures Checklist. During our tour of the facility we reviewed: Shift Logs; youth files; incident reports; monthly inspection reports; fire drills; admittance, detention and classification information; assessments and plans; grievances; facility schedules; use of force; use of restraints and discipline documentation. After reviewing fire drills, we discussed the need to be more consistent with conducting drills monthly as stated in the policy and procedures manual. We also discussed edits to the fire drill documentation logs that would provide more clarity to the number of youth and staff present during a fire drill as well as including the start and ending times of each fire drill. We talked with staff and youth throughout the facility. Discussions with both indicated that Title 15 regulations are being consistently adhered to. 1 Health and Safety Code Section 13146.1(a) and (b). 2 Health and Safety Code Section 101045. 3 Welfare and Institutions Code Section 229. 4 BSCC does not review all your policies and procedures. We do not “approve” your policies and procedures nor do we review them for constitutional or legal issues.
