It indicates that on 09/13/23, students went out to the playground to play. Teacher called out to Child #1 (C1) to move, because C1 was standing in front of the swings. Teacher began to walk towards C1, when another child on the swing feet made contact to the left side neck/jaw line area of C1. C1 fell to the ground crying. The teacher helped C1 to feet and conducted a head to toe check. C1 was in pain and teacher comforted C1 and applied an ice pack. C1 had a red mark and bump on the left clavicle. Teacher and C1 sat on the grass under a tree, so that a phone call could be made to C1's parent. Parent responded, was given an incident report and transported C1 to urgent care. Parent contacted facility and informed that C1 has a broken bone.
