32 | All five (5) staff interviewed denied the above allegation, stating they were unaware of any incident that may have resulted in injuries to C1. All staff interviewed stated they were in compliance with teacher child ratios and maintain visual supervision of children during operating hours. According to staff, injuries are tended to promptly and documented on Ouch Reports, which are provided to the parent. Seven (7) children interviewed did not recall any instances where children or staff had scratched another child. C1 was not interviewed due to age and verbal skills. There were no other witnesses to the alleged incident and no documentation to support that a specific incident had occurred. All five (5) parents interviewed, stated they have not observed any child receiving unexplained injuries, feel the children are well supervised, have no concerns and expressed a high level of satisfaction to the care their children receive.
Based on information obtained throughout the course of the investigation, LPA was unable to determine whether or not, the injuries occurred at the facility, if they were self-inflicted, or a result of a lack of supervision. Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the above allegation is UNSUBSTAINIATED
Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with Director, Araceli Onygan. A copy of this report, along with Appeal Rights (LIC9058), were provided. A Notice of Site Visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days. LPA observed that the Notice of Site Visit was posted during the inspection. Failure to comply with posting requirements shall result in an immediate civil penalty of $100. |
