13 | Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Michelle Hood and Leilani Curtis arrived to conduct an unannounced inspection to deliver complaint findings for the above listed allegation. LPAs met with Director. It was alleged child received unexplained injuries while in care. During the course of the investigation, interviews were conducted with Director, staff, parents, and daycare children. It was determined that on 07/24/2019, child (C1) was assessed by medical personnel after parent observed C1 to have unexplained injuries on their back, later identified as bite marks. According to facility staff, on 07/24/2019, C1 did not show signs of injury, nor exhibit any other signs of distress. Staff were unaware of how or when the injuries occurred. On 07/29/2019, staff witnessed C2 bite C1’s back, twice, before staff could intervene. A review of records and staff interviews revealed the preschool classroom was within ratio and capacity when the incidents occurred. Based on evidence obtained, LPAs are unable to determine whether or not, the injuries were preventable or if a lack of supervision contributed to incidents.
