25 | Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Susan Brewer and Chase Atherton arrived for the purpose of conducting a case management visit in response to the receipt of an self-reported unusual incident report (UIR) from the facility. The UIR was received by the licensing agency on 01/08/2025. It indicates that the Director Angie Twyman, received a report that a subject staff hit or pushed a preschool child. The LPAs discussed the UIR with the Director, toured the facility and took a census of 58 children supervised by 9 staff.
During today’s inspection, the LPAs made observations, reviewed facility records and conducted interviews with pertinent parties regarding the incident. Pertinent parties interviewed stated there was no proof that an incident of hitting or pushing took place and there may have been a misunderstanding perceived during interaction between a subject child and a subject staff. Other pertinent parties interviewed denied witnessing a staff hitting or pushing a subject child.
Based on the information gathered, the facility acted appropriately by conducting an internal investigation, addressing the concerns of parties related to incident and by notifying the department of the concerns of the unusual incident in a timely manner. No violations have been identified at this time.
An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report was provided to Director Angie Twyman.
A notice of site visit was issued and must remain posted for 30 days from today. |
