13 | A follow-up unannounced complaint investigation inspection was made to the facility by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Chris Krogstad. It was alleged that a toddler (C1) sustained an injury (broken bone) while in care and that said injury was not reported to the child's authorized representative, as required. Documentary evidence and medical records were obtained and reviewed on 9/26/19 that provided C1 was last in care at the facility on 9/19/19 and was seen by a physician on 9/23/19 where it was confirmed C1 had a broken bone but that it was unable to be suggested how or when the injury occurred. All staff were interviewed on 9/26/19, 9/27/19 and 10/25/19 and stated they did not observe any incident at any time that they believe could have resulted in C1 being injured. All staff stated that they were unaware of C1 ever having an injury, and therefore could not have and did not report any injury to C1's authorized representative. C1 was interviewed on 10/25/19 and was unable to articulate how or when the injury occurred. Based on available information, although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur, therefore, the allegations are unsubstantiated. This report was reviewed with the licensee and appeal rights were provided.
