It was also alleged that S2 did not allow C1 to engage with other children during outdoor play. S2 denied the allegation and stated that she would separate C1 from other children when he was engaging in rough play. S2 reported that this separation generally lasted approximately five (5) to ten (10) minutes and was intended to allow C1 time to readjust before returning to play with his peers.
Parents interviewed during the investigation expressed a high level of satisfaction with the care provided by the facility and reported no concerns regarding the staff members’ treatment of their children.
Based on the information obtained during the course of the investigation, conflicting accounts were provided regarding the alleged incident. Additionally, no other witnesses were identified who could independently corroborate the specific allegations. Therefore, LPA was unable to determine whether the alleged incident occurred as reported.
Although the allegations may have occurred, the evidence obtained did not establish, by a preponderance of the evidence, that the alleged violation(s) did or did not occur. Therefore, the allegations are determined to be UNSUBSTANTIATED.
An exit interview was conducted, and the report was reviewed with Site Supervisor, Veronica Rosillo.
A Notice of Site Visit was provided and must remain posted at the facility for thirty (30) days. |
