A child sustained an injury and required medical examination on 08/01/2023. The incident was self reported by the facility and a written report was received in the Licensing office within the required reporting period. There were 4 children with the Licensee Jama during the incident. On 08/01/2023, at about 5:30 PM, children played outside in the facility’s front yard with the Licensee Jama. A neighbor was in the process of slowly backing his car out of the shared side driveway. The neighbor and Licensee Jama alerted the children of this action. Child 1 (C1) initially complied but then ran to the car, scraping her left ankle against it. (See LIC 811 Confidential Names). The Licensee contacted the parent. Paramedics were contacted, who medically cleared the child. The parent brought C1 to a hospital. Medical staff examined the child to have no injuries other than a bruise on their left ankle. Daycare parents denied any concerns of absent supervision. Licensee Abdi Farah states he was not present during the incident. Licensee Jama, S1 and the neighbor also report that the children were supervised by the Licensee during the incident. Children were unable to provide a statement due to their developmental levels. LPA inspected the facility’s front yard and observed no apparent hazards accessible to children. No deficiencies cited.
