25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Warren Birks conducted an unannounced Case Management-Incident inspection. This inspection is regarding an injury incident that took place on August 17, 2023. LPA met with Director Jennifer Hollandsworth who assisted with the inspection.
LPA conducted interviews with staff #1 and the Director. LPA also observed a photo of child #1's injury. LPA observed the classroom appear clean, safe and free of uncommon hazards for an infant child. LPA received disclosure and a written incident report indicating child #1 sustained a very minor injury to the nail area of the finger. The injury took place when child #1 placed the finger in a display board. Staff #1 witnessed the incident and provided some first aid to comfort the child. LPA received disclosure that the facility received no information that child #1's injury required professional medical attention (child returned to school the next day). LPA observed the display board and advised Director to provide extra care and supervision around that area and/or remove or alter display board.
Note: The child did not have to receive professional medical attention and returned to school the next day without any restrictions. The facility followed the required protocol in terms of "reporting requirements" as the August 17, 2023 incident was reported to Child Care Licensing within the required 24 hours. Staff also provided first aid and contacted parents immediately.

Failure to maintain posting as required will result in a civil penalty of $100.00. This report will be sent to the Licensee via email with a read receipt to confirm receipt of the report. Exit interview was conducted with Director Jennifer Hollandsworth. |
