We are strongly opposed to real time reporting and instead we support providing separate serious injury information, to the DSS inspector, upon each semi-annual DSS visit. There is enough stress at the time of injury and having to call a licensing specilist would add an additional layer of stress to the current situation.
CCDBG requires this data to be collected, on subsidy providers only. If serious injury reporting is going to be required of all providers, we request being able to produce this data, at the time of a center visit, as opposed to calling The Department of Social Services Licensing Inspector. Inspectors should also receive training on "serious injury" vs. "normal childhood injury". All injuries aren't serious injuries. Thank you.
