25 | An unannounced case management inspection was conducted today at 1:25pm by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Laura Chavez met with Center Manager Mia Johnson in response to an incident that was self-reported on 3/14/2024 to Community Care Licensing Division. The written report was received by the Department on 3/20/2024. The reporting requirements of the Department were met.
It was reported that on 3/13/2024 at approximately 11:30 am, Staff #1 (S1), Staff #2 (S2), and Staff #3 (S3) transitioned 18 children from the outdoor play area to inside the classroom. Children and staff entered the classroom leaving Child #1 (C1) outside alone in the outdoor play area without S1, S2 and S3's knowledge.
CM reported that on 3/13/2024 at approximately 11:30am during the transition from the outdoor play area to inside the classroom, S1, S2, and S3 left C1 alone in the outdoor play area. CM stated she heard the door going into Classroom #1 closing leaving her to believe that S1, S2, and S3 did not realize C1 had been left alone in the outdoor play area. CM said she and Program Leader (PL) who were meeting in her office located in Classroom #2 observed from the office window that C1 had been left outside alone in the outdoor play area. CM said PL immediately went outside to get C1 while she continuously kept her eyes on C1 through the office window. CM stated that C1 was left outside for less than one minute. C1's parents were immediately notified of the incident. |
