Staff stated in addition to one staff witnessing the incident, other staff were walking around the playground, providing supervision to children on the playground.

Based on information obtained during interviews, although a child did sustain a fracture; the incident may or may not have been a result of negligence or lack of supervision. Therefore, based on information received, the above allegation is determined to be unsubstantiated meaning although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur.



Exit interview conducted with assistant director and report given.

LPA observed assistant director post LIC 9213- Notice of site visit.
