A file review was conducted prior to inspection. LPA toured facility, took a census, interviewed staff, child, and observed the area in which the incident took place.
On 2/5/20, child #1 (see LIC 857 - Children's Record Review dated 3/6/20) was in the play structure. While in the play structure, child ran across the bridge and onto the slide platform. Child #1 informed LPA that due to running, the child's bottom inside of lip was bitten, causing bleeding.

Staff #1 was standing near the slide area and was able to observe children on the slide platform. Staff #1 heard a child falling. Child #1, with a group of friends, went to staff #1. Child #1 showed staff #1 the injured area. Staff #1 took child #1 and placed an ice pack on the injured area. The Health Nurse took over and placed a phone call to mother. Child #1 was picked up by mother within 15 minutes and taken to Urgent Care. Around 2:15 pm, staff #1 made a follow up call to parent to check on child #1. The next day, child #1 returned to facility.
Staff followed their safety and supervision zoning plan on the date of incident. Staff have zones that they are stationed based upon the children's flow of play.
