25 | On 01/09/2025 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Anita Tristan arrived at the facility to conduct an unannounced Case Management inspection. LPA met with Director, Raquel Dominguez-Lopez. LPA toured the facility inside and out and a census was taken. The purpose of today's inspection was regarding an unusual incident that was reported to the Fresno Childcare Regional Office on 12/30/2024 regarding a child receiving an injury on the play yard.
During today’s inspection LPA conducted interviews and took pictures.
LPA observed the play yard, fall zones, and the location of staff at the time of the incident. There is adequate cushioning in the play yard to absorb falls in and around the high climbing areas.
Based on the interviews conducted and LPA observation it was determined that Child #1 sustained an injury after colliding into Child #2 as they were running toward the play structure; causing Child #1 to fall half on the cushioned area and half on a cement boarder. During the time of the incident the director was on top of the play structure assisting other children and had visual of the incident as it occurred. Staff provided first aid and care to injured child and contacted parents.
This appears to be an isolated incident and staff took appropriate measures to address the child and followed the appropriate policies, regulations, and reporting requirements.
Per Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 1, of the California Code of Regulations, no deficiencies are cited.
An exit interview was conducted with Director Raquel Dominguez- Lopez and Appeal Rights were provided and discussed.
A Notice of Site Visit was provided and will remain posted for 30 days. |
