Parent and children’s interviews did not corroborate the allegation of C1 sustained injuries while in care. Parent interviews revealed that when children get injured at the FCCH, parents are notified of the incident that led to the injury.

Additionally, interview with licensee revealed C1 was playing when C1 fell and injured himself. Licensee reported C1 feel on a toy when C1 fell, and licensee reported it was an accident.

Further, during parent interviews, families reported being satisfied with the care and supervision their children receive at the FCCH.

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.

A Notice of Site Visit (LIC 9213) and Appeal Rights (LIC 9058) were provided to the Licensee. The Notice of Site Visit must remain posted for 30 days or a civil penalty of $100.00 may apply.
