On Thursday, February 27, 2025 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jesse Gardner conducted an unannounced Case Management inspection to follow-up on an Unusual Incident Report (UIR) submitted to Community Care Licensing on February 11, 2025. LPA met with Assistant Site Supervisor Stephany Lopez and toured the facility and gathered census. LPA interviewed a staff member who was on the playground during the incident, as well as Child One (C1) during this inspection.

Per incident report, on February 7, 2025, at approximately 10:23AM, C1 sustained an injury to the right side of their head that later required 1-2 staples. C1 was interviewed and stated they were running and playing tag with several other children, when they grabbed a half circle grab bar to lunge themselves down the slide, hitting their head. Concluding the incident, C1 stated there were approximately 4 teachers near them at the bottom of the slide; however, C1 wanted Staff One (S1) to care for them, and immediately ran over to S1 who was not at the bottom of the slide, but across the playground supervising their class. S1 was interviewed and was able to immediately respond to C1's needs and apply a paper towel, ice pack on C1's head, and gauze and tape to cover the wound.

C1's parents were contacted, and responded to pick up C1. In addition, the incident was reported to CCL and documentation observed in the injured child’s file. Records review also confirmed that the CCC was operating within proper staff to child ratios. Additionally, LPA observed the playground and area of incident, and found no Title 22 violations that would have contributed to C1's injury.

Based on information gathered, the CCC acted appropriately and no violations of Title 22 have been identified.

An exit interview was held with Assistant Site Supervisor Stephany Lopez. A copy of this report was issued, along with a Notice of Site visit. This report shall be public record for three years.
