25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Lilli Babcock conducted an unannounced Case Management inspection due to an incident that occurred on 8/25/22 and was reported to the Department on 8/26/22. Due to COVID- 19, precautionary measures were taken, and LPA wore appropriate personal protective equipment. LPA met with Director, Cindy O’Neill who guided LPA on a tour of the facility. Census was taken.
On August 26, 2022 an unusual incident report was made to the Department regarding an incident that involved a child who sustained an injury that required medical attention. The facility reported this incident to the Department within the required 24 hours. Based on information obtained during interviews conducted with staff, the injured child, and the parent of child in question, LPA Babcock determined that during outdoor play the child hit their forehead on the outdoor play structure and an injury was sustained. Although staff were present they could not prevent the injury. At 10:20 a.m., during this inspection, LPA did not observe any hazards near or on the area where incident took place. Child was taken to the doctor and Dermabond was applied to the wound. Child has returned to day care.
Based on information obtained during this investigation, no follow up is necessary regarding the incident reported. The facility followed all proper procedures; Staff administered first aid, child’s parent was notified, incident report was sent in properly and timely and all medical needs were met.
A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days. Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with Director, Cindy O’Neill.
