Ms. Roque guided LPA on a tour of the facility. Census was taken. There were 7 staff present caring for 27 children. The facility was observed to be operating within the license capacity limitations. On June 7, 2023, 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, LPA Babcock determined that during outdoor play the child tripped on a step on the play structure and hit their forehead on the plastic edge of the entry to the curvy slide, and an injury was sustained to the child’s forehead in the form of an open cut approximately 1.5 inches long. The injured child was not at the facility on the date of LPA visit, and therefore could not be interviewed. At 9:34 a.m. during this inspection, LPA inspected the outdoor area and did not observe any hazards near or on the area where incident took place. LPA observed the area of the plastic slide which the child hit with his forehead is not sharp and has a rounded plastic edge.
