CRITICALSTAFFING746.1201(1)Apr 17, 2025

A caregiver did not use good judgment or competency in how they communicated with a parent after their child received an accidental injury that was above minor. The parent was provided with insufficient detail of the injury and did not indicate how serious the injury was. As a result, the parent was not able to accurately access their child's injury and that it needed more immediate attention than waiting until pick up time. The child had several abrasions across the face, a bruise and later began to display signs of a possible concussion prior to being picked up by the parent. The caregiver also did not ensure that the director, who was still present at the time, was properly notified. The director was not made aware of the incident until after the child was picked up by the parent.
