25 | On 11/7/2019 at 8:15am, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Joseph Pacheco arrived at the facility to conduct a Case Management inspection. A tour of the facility was conducted and census was taken. LPA met with Director, Maria Padilla to discuss an incident report submitted to Community Care Licensing that occurred in the facility on 10/18/2019 at approximately 4:45pm. The Director stated that on the date of the incident, Child #1 had a febrile seizure that was triggered by a fever over 100 degrees. Child #1 was treated with cold rags and ice packs to lower their temperature. Child #1's Mother and paramedics were contacted immediately. Paramedics arrived at the facility within minutes to transport Child #1 to the hospital. Director stated that Child #1 was treated and released from the hospital the same day. According to Director, Child #1 returned to day care a few days later after being cleared by their doctor. Child #1's Doctor prescribed over the counter medication in the event any fevers occur in the future. Director said that this was the first time that Child #1 had a seizure and that Child #1 does not have a history of these type of medical incidents. Director stated to LPA that Mother informed her that Child #1 has never had a seizure while at home. LPA reviewed Child #1's file and the the facility's IMS policy. Staff were spoken to during today's inspection.
This appears to be an isolated incident and staff took appropriate measures to address the child's incident, following appropriate policies, regulations and reporting requirements.
