“A child in Room 8: Koala II hit their head on the floor without carpet or protective surfacing due to another child pulling their shirt causing them to fall backwards. The Substitute in the room was positioned in a way that would allow them to see both of the two children present in the room, but she did not see the moment the child actually fell. This Substitute confirmed that she was engaged in play with a child in Room 8: Koala I when the incident occurred. She immediately comforted the child while they were crying and the child threw up. The Facility contacted the parents and called 911 per the father's request. The ambulance arrived within 5 - 10 minutes and stated that the child's vitals were fine. Corrected during inspection, the child was observed as being appropriately supervised in Room 8: Koala II during the inspection.”
