25 | On 2/27/25 at 10:30 am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Patricia Berry conducted a subsequent case management visit in regard to an Unusual Incident Report (UIR) received by the RO on 2/15/25. It was reported a child cut another child's finger while engaging in a cutting activity. LPA met with lead teacher, was granted access into the facility. LPA toured facility and took a census.
On 2/20/25 LPA interviewed staff. Staff stated they had all the children sitting at three tables involved in a cutting activity. Staff stated they were present at the time the incident occurred. Staff stated the children involved in the incident do cutting activities independently, and for one child to cut another child's finger was out of character. Staff stated they applied first-aid to the injured area, called the parents and notified Community Care Licensing by filling out a Unusual Incident Report. Staff stated they changed their cutting activities and now have one table for cutting, only. Based on information gathered, the facility acted appropriately, and no violation has been identified.
An exit interview was conducted with lead teacher, and a copy of this report, appeal rights and notice of site visit was provided to facility staff.
Notice of Site Visit must be posted for 30 days.
