An unannounced case management inspection was conducted today 02/26/25 at 11:52am by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Sydney Sims. In regard to staff S1 handling children C1 and C2 in a rough manner.

Upon arrival to the facility LPA Sims observed Staff S1 grab child C1 by the leg and then the arm while on a wooden slide and pulled C1 down the slide by the arm and then pulled C1 from the bottom of the slide by the arm roughly resulting in C1 falling face first on to the ground. S1 did not assist C1 after C1 fell to the ground and LPA Sims observed C1 to be crying. S1 then pulled Child C2 who was on their stomach roughly by the arm and sat C2 down on the slide.

Licensee stated that the facility will complete a UIR about the incident and will provide training to staff about the personal rights of the children.
