An unannounced case management inspection was conducted on this date by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Giselle Lucero in response to a self reported incident dated 03/27/24. LPA met with Director Anna Caamano. Director took LPA on tour of the facility and census was taken in individual classrooms. The overall census observed was 64 preschool age children and 6 staff members during nap time.
A review of adult records indicates that all facility staff or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse index clearances or exemptions.
On 03/28/2024, a self reported Unusual Incident Report (UIR) was filed with the Licensing Office. The Facility reported Child #1 (C1) tripped on the stairs of the play structure, fell, and broke their left arm.
During the investigation, LPA obtained a copy of the children’s roster, reviewed C1’s file, obtained copies of the incident report, conducted a physical plant inspection of the playground, took pictures of the play structure where the incident occurred, and interviewed C1, Staff #1 (S1), and Parent #1 (P1).
S1 stated on 03/27/2024 at 4:50 PM, S1 was standing on one side of the playground and there was a child that was being picked up and S1 turned to look at the child leaving. Staff #2 (S2) was at the gate helping with sign out. S1 then heard a cry in distress and saw C1 sitting on the stairs of the play structure. S1 stated not witnessing the fall due to looking away when C1 fell. S1 stated C1 was walked over to a bench to sit down, and an ice pack was provided to C1. S1 stated C1’s arm looked swollen and purple/blue color and S1 asked C1 to wiggle their fingers, C1 could not wiggle their fingers.
