The reported incident was reported to the Department on 03/14/2024. During today's visit, LPA investigated the incident, conducted staff/child interviews, obtained documentation, a tour/census was taken, and the following was disclosed. The UIR documented an incident where there was an inappropriate interaction between two children. During today's investigation, it was revealed that the interaction was witnessed by a teacher, and that there was no touching or anything further that occurred between the two children. The teacher observed both children and communicated appropriate play practices to them both. LPA observed the area in which the alleged incident took place and did not observe any safety hazards or supervision blind spots. This was a self reported incident, and no children or other persons were affected. Based on the information obtained, there appeared to be no violations of Title 22 Regulations pertaining to the reported incident at this time. LPA conducted an exit interview with Director Sheri Genaway. LPA also provided the facility with a copy of this report. A Notice of Site Visit was issued and must remain posted for the next 30 days.
