25 | Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Mila Quinto and Aidee Nunez conducted an unannounced case management incident inspection in response to a self-report Unusual Incident dated 3/22/2023. LPAs met with Site Supervisor Andrea Castillo. There were 3 staff and no children present at the time of the arrival.
A review of staff criminal clearance records on this date indicates that all facility staff or other individuals who require caregiver background checks have received criminal record and child abuse index clearances or exemptions.
On 3/22/2023, self-reported Unusual Incident Report (UIR) was filed with the Licensing Office. The facility reported a child sustained an injury from a hot soup spilling on Child 1 (C1) lap.
During today's inspection, LPA interviewed 3 staff members. All staff stated when warming up food for the children, the warmed food is placed on the cart to allow the food to cool off for approximately 5 minutes prior to serving to the children. According to Staff 1(S1), prior to snack time, S1 warmed the soup in the microwave for C1. S1 stated placed the hot soup on the table while it was hot and informed C1 to wait for S1. S1 admitted did not wait 5 minutes and placed the hot soup on the table infront of C1. Another child threw a ball and landed on the table and hit C1’s soup causing the soup to land on C1’s lap. Staff 2 (S2) stated heard C1 scream and quickly assisted C1 and witnessed C1’s lap was burnt. Staff 3 (S3) stated called C1’s parent right away. C1’s parent arrived at the facility to drop off an ointment and C1 stayed in the facility until the normal pick-up time.
On 3/27/23, LPA interviewed Parent 1 and stated C1 did not seek medical evaluation and have continued to apply ointment at home. |
