Interviews conducted disclosed staff communicate any incidents pertaining to inappropriate behaviors with children involved, parents, and management. It was also disclosed staff document and notify relevant parties of their observations, including suspected abuse, via telephone and through an incident report. There were no disclosures made regarding concerns with children in care being abused. Records reviewed revealed a few concerning incidents of children in care that occurred in prior years. It is determined there was not sufficient information evident to support the allegation that the facility failed to report the suspected physical or psychological abuse of a child.
Based on information obtained during interviews and records reviewed, it is determined that the allegation could not be substantiated or dismissed. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur; therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.
