On 08/24/2023, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Valerie Mireles and Licensing Program Manager Cynthia Brannon met with Center Supervisor Norma Aranda for an unannounced case management inspection. A complete file review was conducted prior to today's inspection. LPA toured the facility, and a census was taken. The purpose of today's inspection was to address an unusual incident that took place at the facility on 07/27/2023.

An Unusual Incident Report was submitted to the Fresno Community Care Licensing (CCL) Office regarding an incident that occurred, on 07/27/2023, involving a daycare child that fell while running near the outdoor play structure resulting in the child sustaining a fractured nose. On 08/24/2023, LPA and LPM spoke with Staff #1, who reportedly witnessed the incident as it occurred and was in proximity of the child when the incident occurred. According to the staff, the child was dancing then ran towards the outdoor play structure and fell onto the step of the play structure. Initially, the child cried and complained of pain to her nasal area. Per Staff #1 and Staff #2, no visible bruising and or bleeding occurred, but there was minor swelling; therefore, first aid was administered. Immediately after the incident, the child’s parent was notified. Per Staff #2, child was taken to the emergency room and saw a physician on the date of the incident and was diagnosed with a fracture to child’s nose. Per physician, child was placed on physical activity restriction until 09/12/2023. A care plan was developed between Staff #2 and the school nurse to provide the child with activities at home until the child’s return to the facility.

On 08/24/2023, LPA and LPM observed the outdoor play area and structure where the incident took place. The outdoor play structure was inspected and was in good condition with no visible defects. At the time of the incident there were two teachers present and five children present at the outdoor play structure where the incident occurred; therefore, adequate supervision and teacher-child ratio was in place.
