Evaluator Manual – Regulation Interpretations and Procedures for Child Care Centers Sections 101173 and 101226. The following information regarding ADA was provided: US Department of Justice (USDOJ) toll-free ADA Information Line at (800) 514-0301 (voice/ (800) 514-0383 (TTY) and link to publication: Commonly Asked Questions about Child Care Centers and the ADA, available at: http://www.ada.gov/childqanda.htm. There is an approved IMS Plan on file and services were in place today.

During this visit, LPA followed up on a self-reported incident that occurred on 12/11/19 wherein a 4 year old child (Child #1) fell off a small retaining wall on the playground and fractured his elbow. LPA interviewed the Director who was the closest to the child and the first to respond, the Assistant Director who took over his care after the incident. and both Staff #1 and #2 who were on the playground at the time of the incident. There were 16 children present at the time. LPA also spoke with Child #1. Apparently, Child #1 was atop the retaining wall on his way to line up to head to the restroom and slipped, falling on his arm. Director had just turned to speak to Staff #1, who she was relieving, to get a count, when Child #1 fell. She and the Assistant Director who arrived just after, assessed him for range of motion. He had calmed, no swelling or injury was noted and Child #1 resumed regular play. After 15-20 minutes they returned to the classroom where the Assistant Director continued to monitor him. There was no evidence of injury and the child was picked up approximately 2 1/2 hours after the fall. The following day, Child #1's parents alerted the school that swelling was observed and Child #1 was favoring the arm. The doctor diagnosed a fractured elbow. Child #1 has since returned to the program.

Supervision was in place, ratios were met, the staff responded appropriately and the facility reported timely. No deficiencies are cited for this incident..
