During interviews it was revealed a child was using a stone mortar and pestle and dropped it, sustaining an injury to their foot. Interviews with staff also revealed the child was left alone in the classroom with a parent volunteer while staff were outside with the remaining group of children.

It was also alleged that “staff did not properly report an incident involving a day care child”. LPA’s investigation revealed that no report was made to the Department regarding this incident, and that staff knew or should have been aware that medical attention was received for the injury sustained. Director Slater indicated she was not made aware of the incident by staff.

Based on the information obtained during the investigation the evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegations are found to be SUBSTANTIATED. The following Title 22 Deficiencies are being cited on the subsequent 9099-D page. Upon receipt of Type A citations, Director Slater shall provide copies of the LIC 9099-D for parents/guardians of children in care and for parents/guardians of newly enrolled children for the next 12 months. Director Slater must also keep the signed LIC9224, acknowledging receipt of LIC9099-D in each child's file.

Appeal Rights were provided, and LPA posted a Notice of Site Visit with Type A Deficiency Page, which must remain posted for 30 days.
