32 | At 5:03 p.m., the Licensee called the parent and notified the parent that she would check with her assistant because she did not know what happened. The Licensee was not at the facility at the time of the incident or when the child was picked up. During pick up, the Licensees assistant forgot to tell the parent about the incident. Staff 1 was present during the incident. Staff 1 is reporting that the child was running outside, when the child fell on the ground, hitting the child’s forehead, which caused the child’s forehead to get red. Staff placed ice on the child’s forehead and the redness did not go away.
As a result of the child continuing to cry at home, after being picked up, the child was taken to the emergency room (ER). The child was checked by a doctor, and the parent was advised to take the child back to the ER, if the child displayed symptoms of a head injury. LPA received photographs of the child's face where it is clearly visible that the child had a reddish oval marking on the forehead.
After considering all available information, the child sustained a bump and bruise on the forehead that resulted in the child being taken to the ER because of the child continued crying at home.
