Room 4 had nine (9) children with two (2)) staff members. LPA observed the children to be involved in indoor and outdoor activities. Appropriate ratios were maintained, and visual observation noted.
A child sustained an injury and required medical treatment on 06/27/2024. The incident was self reported by the facility. There were 14 children with 2 staff during the incident. On 06/27/2024, around 11:30 AM, a child slipped on the steps to the playground play structure and broke their left arm. Staff immediately attended to the child by elevating their arm and applying ice to the child's arm. Staff contacted that child's responsible representative. LPA inspected the play structure and observed the ground underneath it to be padded. LPA also observed that the equipment is age-appropriate. There were no apparent hazards accessible to children. Staff said that the involved child was running about the playground; they ran to staff crying about their arm. The involved child declined to speak with LPA. The child's responsible representative told LPA that per the child, they ran about the playground and slipped hitting their arm on the playground structure. The responsible party said that the child described the incident the same as what staff described the incident to the responsible party. No deficiencies cited.
