25 | On 10/16/2024 at 11:45AM Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), A. Curry conducted an unannounced case management visit to follow up on a self-reported unusual incident where a child was able to slip through a small opening in the fence that surrounds the outdoor playground that leads to the street. LPA met with the designated facility Director, LaTonya Reliford, to explain the purpose of today's visit. LPA toured the facility and conducted interviews with staff. The interviews revealed that a child slipped through an opening in the fence and the child was on the other side of the fence for 5-10 seconds before a teacher realized the child was no longer on the playground. Although staff stated the child never left the other side of the fence, the playground was not properly fenced to ensure each child stays within the licensed outdoor activity space (See 809D). Since the incident occurred, the facility immediately installed additional fencing to block off access to the part of the fence that has an opening.
Notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days.
Exit interview conducted, appeal rights were given, and report was reviewed with the Director, LaTonya Reliford.
