| Findings: A child was playing and fell and hit his head. The teacher checked the child for bumps and bruises and there were none. This occurred at 9:15 am. The child was fine for some time, but when they went outside the child was playing on the scooter, and became sleepy. The child eventually tried falling asleep inside which is when the teacher contacted the parent via email. and vomited. The center did not notify the parent until 11:30am via email. The center was unaware that the head injury was serious, as the child had no symptoms immediately. The center stated the teacher monitored the child through out the day, and when the child vomited the parents were called. | |||

| 2018-10-31 | Complaint | 13A.16.03.06B(1) | Corrected |
| Findings: In addition to approved lead teacher, Associated Vice President of Auxiliary Services and Auxiliary Operations Specialist have been in charge of the center since Director's medical leave approximately 8 weeks ago. New Administrative Assistant for the Center was also hired after former Administrative Assistant retired. Center did not report these staff changes. Although the Auxiliary staff do work in another capacity at Towson University, Towson University Child Care Center must notify the Office of Child Care as per regulations of any staffing changes, classroom staff or support staff, within the center as per regulations. Center will submit a complete and current Personnel List/Staff Change Form to the Office of Child Care with all applicable documentation for new hires as per regulations. Specialist requests that this list and all applicable documentation be submitted as soon as possible, but no later than 5 working days. | |||
| 2018-10-31 | Complaint | 13A.16.07.06A | Corrected |
| Findings: Although many measures were in place to ensure the safety and security of each child at all times, a safety breach did occur on Monday afternoon, October 29, 2018, when a child was able to leave the center unnoticed. Through Towson University investigations, it is stated that the southeast gate of the playground was suspected to be the breach point. It appears that the gate was securely closed but that either the magnetic lock was not secured or malfunctioned. This gate and lock were stated to have been corrected and additional safety measures have stated to have been instituted as per interview and letter sent to Towson University Child Care parents as noted in other areas of this report. Supervision will be addressed in COMAR 13A.16.08.01A(2)(b). | |||
