Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Elvira Sierra and Karyn Guerra conducted a subsequent complaint investigation and met with Director, Debi Salvino to deliver findings on the above personal rights allegation, a child was injured by a staff member. Present in the facility were 8 staff caring for 20 infants.
Throughout the investigation LPA Sierra observed the care and supervision of children, reviewed children files, interviewed Director, staff, and parents regarding the above allegation. Through the interviews with Director and staff LPA Sierra found that there was no incident report of any child being injured in the facility by staff. Parents interviewed also did not disclose any information of evidence to support the above allegation. Director stated that there was no incident reported to her of any child being injured.
Based on the information obtained, LPA was unable to make a determination if the allegation is valid. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur, therefore the finding is UNSUBSTANTIATED. An exit interview was conducted in which the report was reviewed and discussed with Director.
Director was provided with appeals rights and an exit interview was conducted.

Unsubstantiated
