On 12/23/2024, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Andrea Pittman conducted an unannounced case management visit at the facility and was met by the Facility Representative who permitted entry to the facility. LPA toured the facility with the Assistant Director Aja Minters according to the facility sketch. Upon arrival, LPA observed 1 children present with 3 staff members providing care and supervision.

During this inspection, LPA conducted a followed up on the UIR that was received on 12/20/2024 about an incident on 12/18/2024 that involved Child 1 allegedly injuring their arm at the facility that was reported later as a fracture. LPA interviewed staff, parents, and other relevant parties regarding the incident. Additionally, LPA reviewed the video footage of the infant in the facility on 12/18/2024. LPA reviewed the actions taken by Staff 1, 2, 3, and 4, and found the actions to meet the basic requirements of policy in supervision, first aid provided to an injured child, reporting, etc. Based on the information gathered, there are no reportable violations at this time. LPA provided technical assistance to ensure that the facility continues to report and ensure timely reporting occurs.

All licensing reports are recommended to be kept for 3 years.

An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report was read and provided to the Assistant Director along with the Notice of Site Visit and Appeal Rights.
