25 | On 4/14/21 at 11:45am Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Joseph Pacheco conducted an unannounced Case Management Inspection. LPA met with Director, Deann Grissom to discuss an incident report submitted to Community Care Licensing regarding an Unusual Incident that occurred on 4/621 at approximately 8:15am. Director stated that Child #1 was running while inside to the toy kitchen area. Child #1 lost their footing, tripped and fell on the edge of a wooden bed containing dolls. Staff #1 who witnessed the incident immediately tended to Child #1 and observed that two of Child #1's teeth were extremely loose and there was some bleeding. Director and Staff #1 applied pressure to the wound and immediately contacted Child #1's authorized representative who arrived within a couple of minutes. Child #1 was taken to the dentist where the two teeth were removed. Child #1 did not sustain any permanent damage and has returned to care. LPA interviewed Director, Staff #1 and Child #1 during today's inspection. LPA inspected the area where the Unusual Incident occurred. No tripping hazards were observed. No deficiencies were observed in the play equipment. Director stated that Staff are regularly reminding day care children to not run while inside and will continue to work with them. This appears to be an isolated incident and staff took appropriate measures to address the child's injury, following appropriate policies, regulations and reporting requirements.
Per California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 1 no deficiency was cited during today's inspection.
