LPA met with MAGDALENA LOZANO to discuss the investigation. The investigation consisted of interviews with relevant parties, including staff, parents and children.

Children interviewed were not intimidated or scared of the teacher who grabbed C3, however based on the information obtained from creditable interviews, the investigation has revealed that staff 3 handled child 3 roughly, holding his hands together.

Based on the information gathered the facility will be issued a Type B deficiency for personal rights violation for the incident where Staff 3 violated Child 3 personal Rights when she tried to restrain C3 by grabbing him by his arms and legs and holding them together. The child did not receive any injury or bruises from the incident.
