OCCL Standards Complaint (Substantiated)
“The Office of Child Care Licensing (OCCL) received a complaint on August 31, 2026, regarding concerns of failure to follow proper accident/injury procedures following a severe injury, and failure to notify OCCL regarding a serious injury resulting in the need for medical care. An investigation was conducted on September 10, 2026. This complaint is substantiated for failure to notify OCCL regarding a serious injury resulting in the need for medical care based on interviews conducted. Administrator #1 stated they did not notify OCCL within one business day that Child #1 sustained an injury requiring medical attention nor did they report the injury during the complaint visit conducted by OCCL staff on September 1, 2026. There is no evidence to substantiate this complaint regarding concerns of failure to follow proper accident/injury procedures following a severe injury based on interviews conducted. Administrator #1 and three staff members stated Staff #2 immediately attended to Child #1 and assessed Child #1 s injuries before transporting Child #1 for medical attention, as Staff #2 was the parent of Child #1.”
