25 | On December 22, 2021 at 11:30AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Betzayra Cervantes made an unannounced visit to conduct Case Management - Incident inspection. LPA met with Site Supervisor Maricela Leon and discussed the nature and purpose of the visit and together a tour of the facility was conducted both inside and outside. There were no children in care at the time of the inspection.
On 12/16/2021, the center self reported to Community Care Licensing (CCL) an incident that occurred on 12/15/21 at or around 9:47AM where Child #1 sustained a laceration to the forehead requiring 4 stiches. There were 5 children under the care and supervisor of 2 staff. The children were playing outside on the playground. Staff #1 was at the tables with the children when Child #1 got up and began to run to the play structure. Staff #2 immediately began to follow C1 to the play structure. At that point, C1 stopped at the steps of the play structure and missteped on the stairs, resulting with her falling and hitting her forehead on the play structure. According the staff interviews, C1 began to cry and was bleeding from the injury. S2 inspected the injury and cleaned the area and applied gauze. S2 also offered an ice pack, but the child refused. S2 provided comfort and consoled the child while C1's parents were notified of the incident.
C1's mother arrived within 5 minutes of the incident and took her to the local Emergency Room (ER). C1 was diagnosed with a forehead laceration and was given 4 stiches. Site Supervisor stated that C1's stiches are being removed on 12/22/21. C1 has not returned back to the facility due to the center being closed for the Holidays. Site Supervisor informed LPA that center has been in communication with C1's mother and is tentatively scheduled to return in January.
