When the incident statement dated 10/27/25 (that was included in the facility investigation and completed by the DON) was read to TA #126, she stated it was confusing because there was not a first aid kit on the bus and it sounded like there were two transport aides, TA #118 and an additional one but that wasn't accurate.
