LPA, Luigi Gargaro, conducted an unannounced complaint finding delivery visit to the facility today regarding the above allegation. During the course of the investigation analyst conducted interviews with the licensee, children in care and day care parents. Based on the testimony obtained, it was unclear whether an incident that occurred between two day care children was a case of rugged play between them or unsupervised aggression that could possibly have resulted in an injury. There was no medical or other documentation, however, of any injuries occurring from the encounter or any corroborating testimony regarding threatening behavior. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation(s) did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated.

Unsubstantiated
