Does the Daycare Also Report the Incident to the State in Texas?
Although the daycare is legally required to report incidents involving serious injuries, injuries that require medical attention, and incidents that place a child at risk of harm, some daycares do not. This is against daycare regulations in the state of Texas.
What Other Steps Can I Take After Reporting the Injury to the State?
Reporting your child’s daycare injury or daycare abuse incident to the state is a very important step in helping them move forward. It is also important to do the following two things:
Get Your Child Medical Care
If your child was involved in an incident at daycare that caused them injuries, it’s important to seek medical care for your child, whether the injury is visible or not. Sometimes, the injuries may not be obvious. It’s important that a medical professional, like an emergency room doctor or your child’s pediatrician, evaluates your child for further injuries.
